    //! Traits for conversions between types.
    //!
    //! The traits in this module provide a way to convert from one type to another type.
    //! Each trait serves a different purpose:
    //!
    //! - Implement the [`AsRef`] trait for cheap reference-to-reference conversions
    //! - Implement the [`AsMut`] trait for cheap mutable-to-mutable conversions
    //! - Implement the [`From`] trait for consuming value-to-value conversions
    //! - Implement the [`Into`] trait for consuming value-to-value conversions to types
    //!   outside the current crate
    //! - The [`TryFrom`] and [`TryInto`] traits behave like [`From`] and [`Into`],
    //!   but should be implemented when the conversion can fail.
    //!
    //! The traits in this module are often used as trait bounds for generic functions such that to
    //! arguments of multiple types are supported. See the documentation of each trait for examples.
    //!
    //! As a library author, you should always prefer implementing [`From<T>`][`From`] or
    //! [`TryFrom<T>`][`TryFrom`] rather than [`Into<U>`][`Into`] or [`TryInto<U>`][`TryInto`],
    //! as [`From`] and [`TryFrom`] provide greater flexibility and offer
    //! equivalent [`Into`] or [`TryInto`] implementations for free, thanks to a
    //! blanket implementation in the standard library. Only implement [`Into`] or [`TryInto`]
    //! when a conversion to a type outside the current crate is required.
    //!
    //! # Generic Implementations
    //!
    //! - [`AsRef`] and [`AsMut`] auto-dereference if the inner type is a reference
    //! - [`From`]`<U> for T` implies [`Into`]`<T> for U`
    //! - [`TryFrom`]`<U> for T` implies [`TryInto`]`<T> for U`
    //! - [`From`] and [`Into`] are reflexive, which means that all types can
    //!   `into` themselves and `from` themselves
    //!
    //! See each trait for usage examples.

    /// The identity function.
    ///
    /// Two things are important to note about this function:
    ///
    /// - It is not always equivalent to a closure like `|x| x`, since the
    ///   closure may coerce `x` into a different type.
    ///
    /// - It moves the input `x` passed to the function.
    ///
    /// While it might seem strange to have a function that just returns back the
    /// input, there are some interesting uses.
    ///
    /// # Examples
    ///
    /// Using `identity` to do nothing in a sequence of other, interesting,
    /// functions:
    ///
    /// ```rust
    /// use std::convert::identity;
    ///
    /// fn manipulation(x: u32) -> u32 {
    ///     // Let's pretend that adding one is an interesting function.
    ///     x + 1
    /// }
    ///
    /// let _arr = &[identity, manipulation];
    /// ```
    ///
    /// Using `identity` as a "do nothing" base case in a conditional:
    ///
    /// ```rust
    /// use std::convert::identity;
    ///
    /// # let condition = true;
    /// #
    /// # fn manipulation(x: u32) -> u32 { x + 1 }
    /// #
    /// let do_stuff = if condition { manipulation } else { identity };
    ///
    /// // Do more interesting stuff...
    ///
    /// let _results = do_stuff(42);
    /// ```
    ///
    /// Using `identity` to keep the `Some` variants of an iterator of `Option<T>`:
    ///
    /// ```rust
    /// use std::convert::identity;
    ///
    /// let iter = vec![Some(1), None, Some(3)].into_iter();
    /// let filtered = iter.filter_map(identity).collect::<Vec<_>>();
    /// assert_eq!(vec![1, 3], filtered);
    /// ```

    /// Used to do a cheap reference-to-reference conversion.
    ///
    /// This trait is similar to [`AsMut`] which is used for converting between mutable references.
    /// If you need to do a costly conversion it is better to implement [`From`] with type
    /// `&T` or write a custom function.
    ///
    /// `AsRef` has the same signature as [`Borrow`], but [`Borrow`] is different in few aspects:
    ///
    /// - Unlike `AsRef`, [`Borrow`] has a blanket impl for any `T`, and can be used to accept either
    ///   a reference or a value.
    /// - [`Borrow`] also requires that [`Hash`], [`Eq`] and [`Ord`] for borrowed value are
    ///   equivalent to those of the owned value. For this reason, if you want to
    ///   borrow only a single field of a struct you can implement `AsRef`, but not [`Borrow`].
    ///
    /// **Note: This trait must not fail**. If the conversion can fail, use a
    /// dedicated method which returns an [`Option<T>`] or a [`Result<T, E>`].
    ///
    /// # Generic Implementations
    ///
    /// - `AsRef` auto-dereferences if the inner type is a reference or a mutable
    ///   reference (e.g.: `foo.as_ref()` will work the same if `foo` has type
    ///   `&mut Foo` or `&&mut Foo`)
    ///
    /// # Examples
    ///
    /// By using trait bounds we can accept arguments of different types as long as they can be
    /// converted to the specified type `T`.
    ///
    /// For example: By creating a generic function that takes an `AsRef<str>` we express that we
    /// want to accept all references that can be converted to [`&str`] as an argument.
    /// Since both [`String`] and [`&str`] implement `AsRef<str>` we can accept both as input argument.
