// This module implements Identifier, a short-optimized string allowed to
// contain only the ASCII characters hyphen, dot, 0-9, A-Z, a-z.
//
// As of mid-2021, the distribution of pre-release lengths on crates.io is:
//
// length count length count length count
// 0 355929 11 81 24 2
// 1 208 12 48 25 6
// 2 236 13 55 26 10
// 3 1909 14 25 27 4
// 4 1284 15 15 28 1
// 5 1742 16 35 30 1
// 6 3440 17 9 31 5
// 7 5624 18 6 32 1
// 8 1321 19 12 36 2
// 9 179 20 2 37 379
// 10 65 23 11
//
// and the distribution of build metadata lengths is:
//
// length count length count length count
// 0 364445 8 7725 18 1
// 1 72 9 16 19 1
// 2 7 10 85 20 1
// 3 28 11 17 22 4
// 4 9 12 10 26 1
// 5 68 13 9 27 1
// 6 73 14 10 40 5
// 7 53 15 6
//
// Therefore it really behooves us to be able to use the entire 8 bytes of a
// pointer for inline storage. For both pre-release and build metadata there are
// vastly more strings with length exactly 8 bytes than the sum over all lengths
// longer than 8 bytes.
//
// To differentiate the inline representation from the heap allocated long
// representation, we'll allocate heap pointers with 2-byte alignment so that
// they are guaranteed to have an unset least significant bit. Then in the repr
// we store for pointers, we rotate a 1 into the most significant bit of the
// most significant byte, which is never set for an ASCII byte.
//
// Inline repr:
//
// 0xxxxxxx 0xxxxxxx 0xxxxxxx 0xxxxxxx 0xxxxxxx 0xxxxxxx 0xxxxxxx 0xxxxxxx
//
// Heap allocated repr:
//
// 1ppppppp pppppppp pppppppp pppppppp pppppppp pppppppp pppppppp pppppppp 0
// ^ most significant bit least significant bit of orig ptr, rotated out ^
//
// Since the most significant bit doubles as a sign bit for the similarly sized
// signed integer type, the CPU has an efficient instruction for inspecting it,
// meaning we can differentiate between an inline repr and a heap allocated repr
// in one instruction. Effectively an inline repr always looks like a positive
// i64 while a heap allocated repr always looks like a negative i64.
//
// For the inline repr, we store \0 padding on the end of the stored characters,
// and thus the string length is readily determined efficiently by a cttz (count
// trailing zeros) or bsf (bit scan forward) instruction.
//
// For the heap allocated repr, the length is encoded as a base-128 varint at
// the head of the allocation.
//
// Empty strings are stored as an all-1 bit pattern, corresponding to -1i64.
// Consequently the all-0 bit pattern is never a legal representation in any
// repr, leaving it available as a niche for downstream code. For example this
// allows size_of::<Version>() == size_of::<Option<Version>>().
