//                           MOTIVATION AND TUTORIAL
//
// If you want to put in a single heap allocation N doubles followed by M ints,
// it's easy if N and M are known at compile time.
//
//   struct S {
//     double a[N];
//     int b[M];
//   };
//
//   S* p = new S;
//
// But what if N and M are known only in run time? Class template Layout to the
// rescue! It's a portable generalization of the technique known as struct hack.
//
//   // This object will tell us everything we need to know about the memory
//   // layout of double[N] followed by int[M]. It's structurally identical to
//   // size_t[2] that stores N and M. It's very cheap to create.
//   const Layout<double, int> layout(N, M);
//
//   // Allocate enough memory for both arrays. `AllocSize()` tells us how much
//   // memory is needed. We are free to use any allocation function we want as
//   // long as it returns aligned memory.
//   std::unique_ptr<unsigned char[]> p(new unsigned char[layout.AllocSize()]);
//
//   // Obtain the pointer to the array of doubles.
//   // Equivalent to `reinterpret_cast<double*>(p.get())`.
//   //
//   // We could have written layout.Pointer<0>(p) instead. If all the types are
//   // unique you can use either form, but if some types are repeated you must
//   // use the index form.
//   double* a = layout.Pointer<double>(p.get());
//
//   // Obtain the pointer to the array of ints.
//   // Equivalent to `reinterpret_cast<int*>(p.get() + N * 8)`.
//   int* b = layout.Pointer<int>(p);
//
// If we are unable to specify sizes of all fields, we can pass as many sizes as
// we can to `Partial()`. In return, it'll allow us to access the fields whose
// locations and sizes can be computed from the provided information.
// `Partial()` comes in handy when the array sizes are embedded into the
// allocation.
//
//   // size_t[1] containing N, size_t[1] containing M, double[N], int[M].
//   using L = Layout<size_t, size_t, double, int>;
//
//   unsigned char* Allocate(size_t n, size_t m) {
//     const L layout(1, 1, n, m);
//     unsigned char* p = new unsigned char[layout.AllocSize()];
//     *layout.Pointer<0>(p) = n;
//     *layout.Pointer<1>(p) = m;
//     return p;
//   }
//
//   void Use(unsigned char* p) {
//     // First, extract N and M.
//     // Specify that the first array has only one element. Using `prefix` we
//     // can access the first two arrays but not more.
//     constexpr auto prefix = L::Partial(1);
//     size_t n = *prefix.Pointer<0>(p);
//     size_t m = *prefix.Pointer<1>(p);
//
//     // Now we can get pointers to the payload.
//     const L layout(1, 1, n, m);
//     double* a = layout.Pointer<double>(p);
//     int* b = layout.Pointer<int>(p);
//   }
//
// The layout we used above combines fixed-size with dynamically-sized fields.
// This is quite common. Layout is optimized for this use case and generates
// optimal code. All computations that can be performed at compile time are
// indeed performed at compile time.
//
// Efficiency tip: The order of fields matters. In `Layout<T1, ..., TN>` try to
// ensure that `alignof(T1) >= ... >= alignof(TN)`. This way you'll have no
// padding in between arrays.
//
// You can manually override the alignment of an array by wrapping the type in
// `Aligned<T, N>`. `Layout<..., Aligned<T, N>, ...>` has exactly the same API
// and behavior as `Layout<..., T, ...>` except that the first element of the
// array of `T` is aligned to `N` (the rest of the elements follow without
// padding). `N` cannot be less than `alignof(T)`.
//
// `AllocSize()` and `Pointer()` are the most basic methods for dealing with
// memory layouts. Check out the reference or code below to discover more.
//
//                            EXAMPLE
//
//   // Immutable move-only string with sizeof equal to sizeof(void*). The
//   // string size and the characters are kept in the same heap allocation.
//   class CompactString {
//    public:
//     CompactString(const char* s = "") {
//       const size_t size = strlen(s);
//       // size_t[1] followed by char[size + 1].
//       const L layout(1, size + 1);
//       p_.reset(new unsigned char[layout.AllocSize()]);
//       // If running under ASAN, mark the padding bytes, if any, to catch
//       // memory errors.
//       layout.PoisonPadding(p_.get());
//       // Store the size in the allocation.
//       *layout.Pointer<size_t>(p_.get()) = size;
//       // Store the characters in the allocation.
//       memcpy(layout.Pointer<char>(p_.get()), s, size + 1);
//     }
//
//     size_t size() const {
//       // Equivalent to reinterpret_cast<size_t&>(*p).
//       return *L::Partial().Pointer<size_t>(p_.get());
//     }
//
//     const char* c_str() const {
//       // Equivalent to reinterpret_cast<char*>(p.get() + sizeof(size_t)).
//       // The argument in Partial(1) specifies that we have size_t[1] in front
//       // of the characters.
//       return L::Partial(1).Pointer<char>(p_.get());
//     }
//
//    private:
//     // Our heap allocation contains a size_t followed by an array of chars.
//     using L = Layout<size_t, char>;
//     std::unique_ptr<unsigned char[]> p_;
//   };
//
//   int main() {
//     CompactString s = "hello";
//     assert(s.size() == 5);
//     assert(strcmp(s.c_str(), "hello") == 0);
//   }
//
//                               DOCUMENTATION
//
// The interface exported by this file consists of:
// - class `Layout<>` and its public members.
// - The public members of class `internal_layout::LayoutImpl<>`. That class
//   isn't intended to be used directly, and its name and template parameter
//   list are internal implementation details, but the class itself provides
//   most of the functionality in this file. See comments on its members for
//   detailed documentation.
//
// `Layout<T1,... Tn>::Partial(count1,..., countm)` (where `m` <= `n`) returns a
// `LayoutImpl<>` object. `Layout<T1,..., Tn> layout(count1,..., countn)`
// creates a `Layout` object, which exposes the same functionality by inheriting
// from `LayoutImpl<>`.
