// IdType32<>, IdType64<>, etc. wrap an integer id in a custom, type-safe type.
//
// IdType32<Foo> is an alternative to int, for a class Foo with methods like:
//
//    int GetId() { return id_; };
//    static Foo* FromId(int id) { return g_all_foos_by_id[id]; }
//
// Such methods are a standard means of safely referring to objects across
// thread and process boundaries.  But if a nearby class Bar also represents
// its IDs as a bare int, horrific mixups are possible -- one example, of many,
// is http://crrev.com/365437.  IdType<> offers compile-time protection against
// such mishaps, since IdType32<Foo> is incompatible with IdType32<Bar>, even
// though both just compile down to an int32_t.
//
// Templates in this file:
//   IdType32<T> / IdTypeU32<T>: Signed / unsigned 32-bit IDs
//   IdType64<T> / IdTypeU64<T>: Signed / unsigned 64-bit IDs
//   IdType<>: For when you need a different underlying type or
//             a default/null value other than zero.
//
// IdType32<Foo> behaves just like an int32_t in the following aspects:
// - it can be used as a key in std::map and/or std::unordered_map;
// - it can be used as an argument to DCHECK_EQ or streamed to LOG(ERROR);
// - it has the same memory footprint and runtime overhead as int32_t;
// - it can be copied by memcpy.
// - it can be used in IPC messages.
//
// IdType32<Foo> has the following differences from a bare int32_t:
// - it forces coercions to go through GetUnsafeValue and FromUnsafeValue;
// - it restricts the set of available operations (i.e. no multiplication);
// - it ensures initialization to zero and allows checking against
//   default-initialized values via is_null method.
