    /**
     * Define a new interface. Interface definitions look much like class definitions.
     *
     * The main difference is that the bodies of functions defined in <code>members</code>
     * and <code>statics</code> are called before the original function with the
     * same arguments. This can be used to check the passed arguments. If the
     * checks fail, an exception should be thrown. It is convenient to use the
     * method defined in {@link qx.core.MAssert} to check the arguments.
     *
     * In the <code>build</code> version the checks are omitted.
     *
     * For properties only the names are required so the value of the properties
     * can be empty maps.
     *
     * Example:
     * <pre class='javascript'>
     * qx.Interface.define("name",
     * {
     *   extend: [SuperInterfaces],
     *
     *   statics:
     *   {
     *     PI : 3.14
     *   },
     *
     *   properties: {"color": {}, "name": {} },
     *
     *   members:
     *   {
     *     meth1: function() {},
     *     meth2: function(a, b) { this.assertArgumentsCount(arguments, 2, 2); },
     *     meth3: function(c) { this.assertInterface(c.constructor, qx.some.Interface); }
     *   },
     *
     *   events :
     *   {
     *     keydown : "qx.event.type.KeySequence"
     *   }
     * });
     * </pre>
     *
     * @param name {String} name of the interface
     * @param config {Map ? null} Interface definition structure. The configuration map has the following keys:
     *   <table>
     *     <tr><th>Name</th><th>Type</th><th>Description</th></tr>
     *     <tr><th>extend</th><td>Interface |<br>Interface[]</td><td>Single interface or array of interfaces this interface inherits from.</td></tr>
     *     <tr><th>members</th><td>Map</td><td>Map of members of the interface.</td></tr>
     *     <tr><th>statics</th><td>Map</td><td>
     *         Map of statics of the interface. The statics will not get copied into the target class.
     *         This is the same behaviour as statics in mixins ({@link qx.Mixin#define}).
     *     </td></tr>
     *     <tr><th>properties</th><td>Map</td><td>Map of properties and their definitions.</td></tr>
     *     <tr><th>events</th><td>Map</td><td>Map of event names and the corresponding event class name.</td></tr>
