//! This module provides tooling that facilitates dealing with C-style enums
//!
//! C-style enums and Rust-style enums are quite different. There are things
//! which one allows, but not the other, and vice versa. In an FFI context, two
//! aspects of C-style enums are particularly bothersome to us:
//!
//! - They allow a caller to send back an unknown enum variant. In Rust, the
//!   mere act of storing such a variant in a variable is undefined behavior.
//! - They have an implicit conversion to integers, which is often used as a
//!   more portable alternative to C bitfields or as a way to count the amount
//!   of variants of an enumerated type. Rust enums do not model this well.
//!
//! Therefore, in many cases, C enums are best modeled as newtypes of integers
//! featuring a large set of associated constants instead of as Rust enums. This
//! module provides facilities to simplify this kind of FFI.
/// Interface a C-style enum as an integer newtype.
///
/// This macro implements Debug for you, the way you would expect it to work on
/// Rust enums (printing the variant name instead of its integer value). It also
/// derives Clone, Copy, Eq and PartialEq, since that always makes sense for
/// C-style enums and is used by the implementation. If you want anything else
/// to be derived, you can ask for it by adding extra derives as shown in the
/// example below.
///
/// One minor annoyance is that since variants will be translated into
/// associated constants in a separate impl block, you need to discriminate
/// which attributes should go on the type and which should go on the impl
/// block. The latter should go on the right-hand side of the arrow operator.
///
/// Usage example:
/// ```
/// # use uefi_raw::newtype_enum;
/// newtype_enum! {
/// #[derive(Ord, PartialOrd)]
/// pub enum UnixBool: i32 => #[allow(missing_docs)] {
///     FALSE          =  0,
///     TRUE           =  1,
///     /// Nobody expects the Unix inquisition!
///     FILE_NOT_FOUND = -1,
/// }}
/// ```
