//! Generic data structure deserialization framework.
//!
//! The two most important traits in this module are [`Deserialize`] and
//! [`Deserializer`].
//!
//! - **A type that implements `Deserialize` is a data structure** that can be
//! deserialized from any data format supported by Serde, and conversely
//! - **A type that implements `Deserializer` is a data format** that can
//! deserialize any data structure supported by Serde.
//!
//! # The Deserialize trait
//!
//! Serde provides [`Deserialize`] implementations for many Rust primitive and
//! standard library types. The complete list is below. All of these can be
//! deserialized using Serde out of the box.
//!
//! Additionally, Serde provides a procedural macro called [`serde_derive`] to
//! automatically generate [`Deserialize`] implementations for structs and enums
//! in your program. See the [derive section of the manual] for how to use this.
//!
//! In rare cases it may be necessary to implement [`Deserialize`] manually for
//! some type in your program. See the [Implementing `Deserialize`] section of
//! the manual for more about this.
//!
//! Third-party crates may provide [`Deserialize`] implementations for types
//! that they expose. For example the [`linked-hash-map`] crate provides a
//! [`LinkedHashMap<K, V>`] type that is deserializable by Serde because the
//! crate provides an implementation of [`Deserialize`] for it.
//!
//! # The Deserializer trait
//!
//! [`Deserializer`] implementations are provided by third-party crates, for
//! example [`serde_json`], [`serde_yaml`] and [`postcard`].
//!
//! A partial list of well-maintained formats is given on the [Serde
//! website][data formats].
//!
//! # Implementations of Deserialize provided by Serde
//!
//! This is a slightly different set of types than what is supported for
//! serialization. Some types can be serialized by Serde but not deserialized.
//! One example is `OsStr`.
//!
//! - **Primitive types**:
//! - bool
//! - i8, i16, i32, i64, i128, isize
//! - u8, u16, u32, u64, u128, usize
//! - f32, f64
//! - char
//! - **Compound types**:
//! - \[T; 0\] through \[T; 32\]
//! - tuples up to size 16
//! - **Common standard library types**:
//! - String
//! - Option\<T\>
//! - Result\<T, E\>
//! - PhantomData\<T\>
//! - **Wrapper types**:
//! - Box\<T\>
//! - Box\<\[T\]\>
//! - Box\<str\>
//! - Cow\<'a, T\>
//! - Cell\<T\>
//! - RefCell\<T\>
//! - Mutex\<T\>
//! - RwLock\<T\>
//! - Rc\<T\> *(if* features = \["rc"\] *is enabled)*
//! - Arc\<T\> *(if* features = \["rc"\] *is enabled)*
//! - **Collection types**:
//! - BTreeMap\<K, V\>
//! - BTreeSet\<T\>
//! - BinaryHeap\<T\>
//! - HashMap\<K, V, H\>
//! - HashSet\<T, H\>
//! - LinkedList\<T\>
//! - VecDeque\<T\>
//! - Vec\<T\>
//! - **Zero-copy types**:
//! - &str
//! - &\[u8\]
//! - **FFI types**:
//! - CString
//! - Box\<CStr\>
//! - OsString
//! - **Miscellaneous standard library types**:
//! - Duration
//! - SystemTime
//! - Path
//! - PathBuf
//! - Range\<T\>
//! - RangeInclusive\<T\>
//! - Bound\<T\>
//! - num::NonZero*
//! - `!` *(unstable)*
//! - **Net types**:
//! - IpAddr
//! - Ipv4Addr
//! - Ipv6Addr
//! - SocketAddr

/// - **string**
/// - UTF-8 bytes with a length and no null terminator.
/// - When serializing, all strings are handled equally. When deserializing,
/// there are three flavors of strings: transient, owned, and borrowed.
/// - **byte array** - \[u8\]
/// - Similar to strings, during deserialization byte arrays can be
/// transient, owned, or borrowed.
/// - **option**
/// - Either none or some value.
/// - **unit**
/// - The type of `()` in Rust. It represents an anonymous value containing
/// no data.
/// - **unit_struct**
/// - For example `struct Unit` or `PhantomData<T>`. It represents a named
/// value containing no data.
/// - **unit_variant**
/// - For example the `E::A` and `E::B` in `enum E { A, B }`.
/// - **newtype_struct**
/// - For example `struct Millimeters(u8)`.
/// - **newtype_variant**
/// - For example the `E::N` in `enum E { N(u8) }`.
/// - **seq**
/// - A variably sized heterogeneous sequence of values, for example `Vec<T>`
/// or `HashSet<T>`. When serializing, the length may or may not be known
/// before iterating through all the data. When deserializing, the length
/// is determined by looking at the serialized data.
/// - **tuple**
/// - A statically sized heterogeneous sequence of values for which the
/// length will be known at deserialization time without looking at the
/// serialized data, for example `(u8,)` or `(String, u64, Vec<T>)` or
/// `[u64; 10]`.
/// - **tuple_struct**
/// - A named tuple, for example `struct Rgb(u8, u8, u8)`.
/// - **tuple_variant**
/// - For example the `E::T` in `enum E { T(u8, u8) }`.
/// - **map**
/// - A heterogeneous key-value pairing, for example `BTreeMap<K, V>`.
/// - **struct**
/// - A heterogeneous key-value pairing in which the keys are strings and
/// will be known at deserialization time without looking at the serialized
/// data, for example `struct S { r: u8, g: u8, b: u8 }`.
/// - **struct_variant**
/// - For example the `E::S` in `enum E { S { r: u8, g: u8, b: u8 } }`.
///
/// The `Deserializer` trait supports two entry point styles which enables
/// different kinds of deserialization.
///
/// 1. The `deserialize_any` method. Self-describing data formats like JSON are
/// able to look at the serialized data and tell what it represents. For
/// example the JSON deserializer may see an opening curly brace (`{`) and
/// know that it is seeing a map. If the data format supports
/// `Deserializer::deserialize_any`, it will drive the Visitor using whatever
/// type it sees in the input. JSON uses this approach when deserializing
/// `serde_json::Value` which is an enum that can represent any JSON
/// document. Without knowing what is in a JSON document, we can deserialize
/// it to `serde_json::Value` by going through
/// `Deserializer::deserialize_any`.
///
/// 2. The various `deserialize_*` methods. Non-self-describing formats like
/// Postcard need to be told what is in the input in order to deserialize it.
/// The `deserialize_*` methods are hints to the deserializer for how to
/// interpret the next piece of input. Non-self-describing formats are not
/// able to deserialize something like `serde_json::Value` which relies on
/// `Deserializer::deserialize_any`.
///
/// When implementing `Deserialize`, you should avoid relying on
/// `Deserializer::deserialize_any` unless you need to be told by the
/// Deserializer what type is in the input. Know that relying on
/// `Deserializer::deserialize_any` means your data type will be able to
/// deserialize from self-describing formats only, ruling out Postcard and many
/// others.
///
///
/// # Lifetime
///
/// The `'de` lifetime of this trait is the lifetime of data that may be
/// borrowed from the input when deserializing. See the page [Understanding
/// deserializer lifetimes] for a more detailed explanation of these lifetimes.
///
