//! Interface for interfaces.
//!
//! ## Design
//! The design of protocols is based on an idea found in the
//! [`gdbstub`](https://docs.rs/gdbstub/latest/gdbstub/target/ext/index.html) crate.
//! This idea is of so called inlinable dyn extension traits.
//! However, in the form given in `gdbstub` they can't be used for arbitrary interfaces.
//! The main trait still needs to know about all the possible protocols.
//! That is where this module comes in.
//!
//! This module implements a technique we name dynamic inlinable dyn extension traits (DIDETs).
//! DIDETs adds one more layer to IDETs. Instead of a trait that knows all the possible protocols,
//! we have a single trait [`Implementer`] that allows looking up an extension trait
//! using a type ID. This may seem like it defeats the purpose of IDETs, that being to
//! make them inlinable. However, it turns out LLVM (the optimizer) is able to see
//! through this style of runtime reflection. As such, we still gain the benefits of
//! IDETs but with more flexability.
//! Protocols can now be defined in *any* crate and used between arbitrary crates.
//!
//! A protocol is a special trait that can participate as a DIDET. The only thing needed
//! for a protocol is an associated trait object. Because we need to use the
//! [`TypeId`][core::any::TypeId] of a protocol to perform reflection, we can't just use
//! the trait object itself as the protocol type. Instead an uninhabited type is used
//! as a marker for the trait.
//!
//! We then "implement" a protocol for a type by using [`Implementation`]. This provides
//! a mapping from `T` to the protocol's trait object.
//! By itself, [`Implementation`] is not enough for DIDET. A type also needs to implement
//! [`Implementer`] which allows looking up a particular [`Implementation`] trait object
//! from a [`ProtocolId`].
//!
//! The implementation of DIDETs defined by this module allows [`Implementer`] to be object safe.
//! This is done via the help of the [`AnyImpl`] type. This is not required for the core
//! idea of DIDETs.
