+/**
+ * # mozilla::Variant
+ *
+ * A variant / tagged union / heterogenous disjoint union / sum-type template
+ * class. Similar in concept to (but not derived from) `boost::variant`.
+ *
+ * Sometimes, you may wish to use a C union with non-POD types. However, this is
+ * forbidden in C++ because it is not clear which type in the union should have
+ * its constructor and destructor run on creation and deletion
+ * respectively. This is the problem that `mozilla::Variant` solves.
+ *
+ * ## Usage
+ *
+ * A `mozilla::Variant` instance is constructed (via move or copy) from one of
+ * its variant types (ignoring const and references). It does *not* support
+ * construction from subclasses of variant types or types that coerce to one of
+ * the variant types.
+ *
+ * Variant<char, uint32_t> v1('a');
+ * Variant<UniquePtr<A>, B, C> v2(MakeUnique<A>());
+ * Variant<bool, char> v3(VariantType<char>, 0); // disambiguation needed
+ * Variant<int, int> v4(VariantIndex<1>, 0); // 2nd int
+ *
+ * Because specifying the full type of a Variant value is often verbose,
+ * there are two easier ways to construct values:
+ *
+ * A. AsVariant() can be used to construct a Variant value using type inference
+ * in contexts such as expressions or when returning values from functions.
+ * Because AsVariant() must copy or move the value into a temporary and this
+ * cannot necessarily be elided by the compiler, it's mostly appropriate only
+ * for use with primitive or very small types.
+ *
+ * Variant<char, uint32_t> Foo() { return AsVariant('x'); }
+ * // ...
+ * Variant<char, uint32_t> v1 = Foo(); // v1 holds char('x').
+ *
+ * B. Brace-construction with VariantType or VariantIndex; this also allows
+ * in-place construction with any number of arguments.
+ *
+ * struct AB { AB(int, int){...} };
+ * static Variant<AB, bool> foo()
+ * {
+ * return {VariantIndex<0>{}, 1, 2};
+ * }
+ * // ...
+ * Variant<AB, bool> v0 = Foo(); // v0 holds AB(1,2).
+ *
+ * All access to the contained value goes through type-safe accessors.
+ * Either the stored type, or the type index may be provided.
+ *
+ * void
+ * Foo(Variant<A, B, C> v)
+ * {
+ * if (v.is<A>()) {
+ * A& ref = v.as<A>();
+ * ...
+ * } else (v.is<1>()) { // Instead of v.is<B>.
+ * ...
+ * } else {
+ * ...
+ * }
+ * }
+ *
+ * In some situation, a Variant may be constructed from templated types, in
+ * which case it is possible that the same type could be given multiple times by
+ * an external developer. Or seemingly-different types could be aliases.
+ * In this case, repeated types can only be accessed through their index, to
+ * prevent ambiguous access by type.
+ *
+ * // Bad!
+ * template <typename T>
+ * struct ResultOrError
+ * {
+ * Variant<T, int> m;
+ * ResultOrError() : m(int(0)) {} // Error '0' by default
+ * ResultOrError(const T& r) : m(r) {}
+ * bool IsResult() const { return m.is<T>(); }
+ * bool IsError() const { return m.is<int>(); }
+ * };
+ * // Now instantiante with the result being an int too:
+ * ResultOrError<int> myResult(123); // Fail!
+ * // In Variant<int, int>, which 'int' are we refering to, from inside
+ * // ResultOrError functions?
+ *
+ * // Good!
+ * template <typename T>
+ * struct ResultOrError
+ * {
+ * Variant<T, int> m;
+ * ResultOrError() : m(VariantIndex<1>{}, 0) {} // Error '0' by default
+ * ResultOrError(const T& r) : m(VariantIndex<0>{}, r) {}
+ * bool IsResult() const { return m.is<0>(); } // 0 -> T
+ * bool IsError() const { return m.is<1>(); } // 1 -> int
+ * };
+ * // Now instantiante with the result being an int too:
+ * ResultOrError<int> myResult(123); // It now works!
+ *
+ * Attempting to use the contained value as type `T1` when the `Variant`
+ * instance contains a value of type `T2` causes an assertion failure.
+ *
+ * A a;
+ * Variant<A, B, C> v(a);
+ * v.as<B>(); // <--- Assertion failure!
+ *
+ * Trying to use a `Variant<Ts...>` instance as some type `U` that is not a
+ * member of the set of `Ts...` is a compiler error.
+ *
+ * A a;
+ * Variant<A, B, C> v(a);
+ * v.as<SomeRandomType>(); // <--- Compiler error!
+ *
+ * Additionally, you can turn a `Variant` that `is<T>` into a `T` by moving it
+ * out of the containing `Variant` instance with the `extract<T>` method:
+ *
+ * Variant<UniquePtr<A>, B, C> v(MakeUnique<A>());
+ * auto ptr = v.extract<UniquePtr<A>>();
+ *
+ * Finally, you can exhaustively match on the contained variant and branch into
+ * different code paths depending on which type is contained. This is preferred
+ * to manually checking every variant type T with is<T>() because it provides
+ * compile-time checking that you handled every type, rather than runtime
+ * assertion failures.
+ *
+ * // Bad!
+ * char* foo(Variant<A, B, C, D>& v) {
+ * if (v.is<A>()) {
+ * return ...;
+ * } else if (v.is<B>()) {
+ * return ...;
+ * } else {
+ * return doSomething(v.as<C>()); // Forgot about case D!
+ * }
+ * }
+ *
+ * // Instead, a single function object (that can deal with all possible
+ * // options) may be provided:
+ * struct FooMatcher
+ * {
+ * // The return type of all matchers must be identical.
+ * char* operator()(A& a) { ... }
+ * char* operator()(B& b) { ... }
+ * char* operator()(C& c) { ... }
+ * char* operator()(D& d) { ... } // Compile-time error to forget D!
+ * }
+ * char* foo(Variant<A, B, C, D>& v) {
+ * return v.match(FooMatcher());
+ * }
+ *
+ * // In some situations, a single generic lambda may also be appropriate:
+ * char* foo(Variant<A, B, C, D>& v) {
+ * return v.match([](auto&) {...});
+ * }
+ *
+ * // Alternatively, multiple function objects may be provided, each one
+ * // corresponding to an option, in the same order:
+ * char* foo(Variant<A, B, C, D>& v) {
+ * return v.match([](A&) { ... },
+ * [](B&) { ... },
+ * [](C&) { ... },
+ * [](D&) { ... });
+ * }
+ *
+ * // In rare cases, the index of the currently-active alternative is
+ * // needed, it may be obtained by adding a first parameter in the matcner
+ * // callback, which will receive the index in its most compact type (just
+ * // use `size_t` if the exact type is not important), e.g.:
+ * char* foo(Variant<A, B, C, D>& v) {
+ * return v.match([](auto aIndex, auto& aAlternative) {...});
+ * // --OR--
+ * return v.match([](size_t aIndex, auto& aAlternative) {...});
+ * }
+ *
+ * ## Examples
+ *
+ * A tree is either an empty leaf, or a node with a value and two children:
+ *
+ * struct Leaf { };
+ *
+ * template<typename T>
+ * struct Node
+ * {
+ * T value;
+ * Tree<T>* left;
+ * Tree<T>* right;
+ * };
+ *
+ * template<typename T>
+ * using Tree = Variant<Leaf, Node<T>>;
+ *
+ * A copy-on-write string is either a non-owning reference to some existing
+ * string, or an owning reference to our copy:
+ *
+ * class CopyOnWriteString
+ * {
+ * Variant<const char*, UniquePtr<char[]>> string;
+ *
+ * ...
+ * };
+ *
+ * Because Variant must be aligned suitable to hold any value stored within it,
+ * and because |alignas| requirements don't affect platform ABI with respect to
+ * how parameters are laid out in memory, Variant can't be used as the type of a
+ * function parameter. Pass Variant to functions by pointer or reference
+ * instead.
