/**
 * A growable, modifiable vector type that accumulates elements into a
 * unique vector.
 *
 * # Limitations on recursive use
 *
 * This class works by swapping the unique vector out of the data
 * structure whenever it is to be used.  Therefore, recursive use is not
 * permitted.  That is, while iterating through a vector, you cannot
 * access the vector in any other way or else the program will fail.  If
 * you wish, you can use the `swap()` method to gain access to the raw
 * vector and transform it or use it any way you like.  Eventually, we
 * may permit read-only access during iteration or other use.
 *
 * # WARNING
 *
 * For maximum performance, this type is implemented using some rather
 * unsafe code.  In particular, this innocent looking `[mut A]/~` pointer
 * *may be null!*  Therefore, it is important you not reach into the
 * data structure manually but instead use the provided extensions.
 *
 * The reason that I did not use an unsafe pointer in the structure
 * itself is that I wanted to ensure that the vector would be freed when
 * the dvec is dropped.  The reason that I did not use an `option<T>`
 * instead of a nullable pointer is that I found experimentally that it
 * becomes approximately 50% slower. This can probably be improved
 * through optimization.  You can run your own experiments using
 * `src/test/bench/vec-append.rs`. My own tests found that using null
 * pointers achieved about 103 million pushes/second.  Using an option
 * type could only produce 47 million pushes/second.
