//! A pointer type for heap allocation.
//!
//! `Box<T>`, casually referred to as a 'box', provides the simplest form of
//! heap allocation in Rust. Boxes provide ownership for this allocation, and
//! drop their contents when they go out of scope.
//!
//! # Examples
//!
//! Move a value from the stack to the heap by creating a [`Box`]:
//!
//! ```
//! let val: u8 = 5;
//! let boxed: Box<u8> = Box::new(val);
//! ```
//!
//! Move a value from a [`Box`] back to the stack by [dereferencing]:
//!
//! ```
//! let boxed: Box<u8> = Box::new(5);
//! let val: u8 = *boxed;
//! ```
//!
//! Creating a recursive data structure:
//!
//! ```
//! #[derive(Debug)]
//! enum List<T> {
//! Cons(T, Box<List<T>>),
//! Nil,
//! }
//!
//! fn main() {
//! let list: List<i32> = List::Cons(1, Box::new(List::Cons(2, Box::new(List::Nil))));
//! println!("{:?}", list);
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! This will print `Cons(1, Cons(2, Nil))`.
//!
//! Recursive structures must be boxed, because if the definition of `Cons`
//! looked like this:
//!
//! ```compile_fail,E0072
//! # enum List<T> {
//! Cons(T, List<T>),
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! It wouldn't work. This is because the size of a `List` depends on how many
//! elements are in the list, and so we don't know how much memory to allocate
//! for a `Cons`. By introducing a `Box`, which has a defined size, we know how
//! big `Cons` needs to be.
//!

/* Nota bene
*
* We could have chosen not to add this impl, and instead have written a
* function of Pin<Box<T>> to Pin<T>. Such a function would not be sound,
* because Box<T> implements Unpin even when T does not, as a result of
* this impl.
*
* We chose this API instead of the alternative for a few reasons:
* - Logically, it is helpful to understand pinning in regard to the
* memory region being pointed to. For this reason none of the
* standard library pointer types support projecting through a pin
* (Box<T> is the only pointer type in std for which this would be
* safe.)
* - It is in practice very useful to have Box<T> be unconditionally
* Unpin because of trait objects, for which the structural auto
* trait functionality does not apply (e.g., Box<dyn Foo> would
* otherwise not be Unpin).
*
* Another type with the same semantics as Box but only a conditional
* implementation of `Unpin` (where `T: Unpin`) would be valid/safe, and
* could have a method to project a Pin<T> from it.
