// A span is a value type that represents an array of elements of type T. Since
// it only consists of a pointer to memory with an associated size, it is very
// light-weight. It is cheap to construct, copy, move and use spans, so that
// users are encouraged to use it as a pass-by-value parameter. A span does not
// own the underlying memory, so care must be taken to ensure that a span does
// not outlive the backing store.
//
// span is somewhat analogous to StringPiece, but with arbitrary element types,
// allowing mutation if T is non-const.
//
// span is implicitly convertible from C++ arrays, as well as most [1]
// container-like types that provide a data() and size() method (such as
// std::vector<T>). A mutable span<T> can also be implicitly converted to an
// immutable span<const T>.
//
// Consider using a span for functions that take a data pointer and size
// parameter: it allows the function to still act on an array-like type, while
// allowing the caller code to be a bit more concise.
//
// For read-only data access pass a span<const T>: the caller can supply either
// a span<const T> or a span<T>, while the callee will have a read-only view.
// For read-write access a mutable span<T> is required.
//
// Without span:
//   Read-Only:
//     // std::string HexEncode(const uint8_t* data, size_t size);
//     std::vector<uint8_t> data_buffer = GenerateData();
//     std::string r = HexEncode(data_buffer.data(), data_buffer.size());
//
//  Mutable:
//     // ssize_t SafeSNPrintf(char* buf, size_t N, const char* fmt, Args...);
//     char str_buffer[100];
//     SafeSNPrintf(str_buffer, sizeof(str_buffer), "Pi ~= %lf", 3.14);
//
// With span:
//   Read-Only:
//     // std::string HexEncode(base::span<const uint8_t> data);
//     std::vector<uint8_t> data_buffer = GenerateData();
//     std::string r = HexEncode(data_buffer);
//
//  Mutable:
//     // ssize_t SafeSNPrintf(base::span<char>, const char* fmt, Args...);
//     char str_buffer[100];
//     SafeSNPrintf(str_buffer, "Pi ~= %lf", 3.14);
//
// Spans with "const" and pointers
// -------------------------------
//
// Const and pointers can get confusing. Here are vectors of pointers and their
// corresponding spans (you can always make the span "more const" too):
//
//   const std::vector<int*>        =>  base::span<int* const>
//   std::vector<const int*>        =>  base::span<const int*>
//   const std::vector<const int*>  =>  base::span<const int* const>
//
// Differences from the working group proposal
// -------------------------------------------
//
// https://wg21.link/P0122 is the latest working group proposal, Chromium
// currently implements R6. The biggest difference is span does not support a
// static extent template parameter. Other differences are documented in
// subsections below.
//
// Differences in constants and types:
// - no element_type type alias
// - no index_type type alias
// - no different_type type alias
// - no extent constant
//
// Differences from [span.cons]:
// - no constructor from a pointer range
//
// Differences from [span.sub]:
// - using size_t instead of ptrdiff_t for indexing
//
// Differences from [span.obs]:
// - using size_t instead of ptrdiff_t to represent size()
//
// Differences from [span.elem]:
// - no operator ()()
// - using size_t instead of ptrdiff_t for indexing
//
// Additions beyond the C++ standard draft
// - as_chars() function.
// - as_writable_chars() function.
// - as_byte_span() function.
// - as_writable_byte_span() function.
// - span_from_ref() function.
// - byte_span_from_ref() function.
