/**
 * Increase the message ID counter
 * 
 * @param   message_id  Pointer to the current message ID, will be update with
 *                      the next free message ID. Must not be `NULL`.
 * @param   test        Function that tests whether an message ID is free,
 *                      it takes the message ID to test as its first argument,
 *                      and `data` as its second argument, and returns zero if
 *                      it is in used, a positive integer if it is free, and a
 *                      negative integer if an error occurred. `NULL` if there
 *                      should be no testing.
 * @param   data        Argument to pass to `test` so that it can deal with
 *                      threading or any other issues. Unused if `test` is `NULL`.
 * @return              Zero on success, -1 on error, `errno` will have been set
 *                      accordingly on error.
 * 
 * @throws  EAGAIN      If there are no free message ID to be used.
 *                      It is advisable to make `test` throw this immediately if
 *                      there are no free message ID:s.
 * @throws              Any error that `test` may throw.
