+ * DebugOnly contains a value of type T, but only in debug builds. In release
+ * builds, it does not contain a value. This helper is intended to be used with
+ * MOZ_ASSERT()-style macros, allowing one to write:
+ *
+ * DebugOnly<bool> check = func();
+ * MOZ_ASSERT(check);
+ *
+ * more concisely than declaring |check| conditional on #ifdef DEBUG.
+ *
+ * DebugOnly instances can only be coerced to T in debug builds. In release
+ * builds they don't have a value, so type coercion is not well defined.
+ *
+ * NOTE: DebugOnly instances still take up one byte of space, plus padding, even
+ * in optimized, non-DEBUG builds (see bug 1253094 comment 37 for more info).
+ * For this reason the class is MOZ_STACK_CLASS to prevent consumers using
+ * DebugOnly for struct/class members and unwittingly inflating the size of
+ * their objects in release builds.
