rather than value.

# Overview
`ByAddress` can be used to wrap any pointer type (i.e. any type that implements the Deref
trait). This includes references, raw pointers, smart pointers like `Rc<T>`
and `Box<T>`, and specialized pointer-like types such as `Vec<T>` and `String`.
The wrapped pointer implements the following traits based on the address of
its contents, rather than their value:
* Hash
* Eq, PartialEq
* Ord, PartialOrd
## no_std
This crate does not depend on libstd, so it can be used in [`no_std`]
projects.
