//! The arena, a fast but limited type of allocator.
//!
//! Arenas are a type of allocator that destroy the objects within, all at
//! once, once the arena itself is destroyed. They do not support deallocation
//! of individual objects while the arena itself is still alive. The benefit
//! of an arena is very fast allocation; just a pointer bump.
//!
//! This crate has two arenas implemented: `TypedArena`, which is a simpler
//! arena but can only hold objects of a single type, and `Arena`, which is a
//! more complex, slower arena which can hold objects of any type.

/// A slower reflection-based arena that can allocate objects of any type.
///
/// This arena uses `Vec<u8>` as a backing store to allocate objects from. For
/// each allocated object, the arena stores a pointer to the type descriptor
/// followed by the object (potentially with alignment padding after each
/// element). When the arena is destroyed, it iterates through all of its
/// chunks, and uses the tydesc information to trace through the objects,
/// calling the destructors on them. One subtle point that needs to be
/// addressed is how to handle panics while running the user provided
/// initializer function. It is important to not run the destructor on
/// uninitialized objects, but how to detect them is somewhat subtle. Since
/// `alloc()` can be invoked recursively, it is not sufficient to simply exclude
/// the most recent object. To solve this without requiring extra space, we
/// use the low order bit of the tydesc pointer to encode whether the object
/// it describes has been fully initialized.
///
/// As an optimization, objects with destructors are stored in different chunks
/// than objects without destructors. This reduces overhead when initializing
/// plain-old-data (`Copy` types) and means we don't need to waste time running
/// their destructors.
