The `Ord` and `Eq` comparison traits

This module contains the definition of both `Ord` and `Eq` which define
the common interfaces for doing comparison. Both are language items
that the compiler uses to implement the comparison operators. Rust code
may implement `Ord` to overload the `<`, `<=`, `>`, and `>=` operators,
and `Eq` to overload the `==` and `!=` operators.

/**
* Trait for values that can be compared for equality
* and inequality.
*
* Eventually this may be simplified to only require
* an `eq` method, with the other generated from
* a default implementation. However it should
* remain possible to implement `ne` separately, for
* compatibility with floating-point NaN semantics
* (cf. IEEE 754-2008 section 5.11).
