//! Safely cast bytes slices from/to slices of built-in fundamental numeric types.
//!
//! The provided traits here allow safe casting between byte slices and slices of fundamental
//! numeric types, like integers and floating point numbers. During casting, checks are performed
//! to ensure that the output slice is safe to use: the input slice must be properly aligned for
//! the output type and contain an integer number of values.
//!
//! Instead of working only on slices, the traits work on `AsRef<[T]>` in the immutable case and on
//! `AsMut<[T]>` for the mutable case. As such, it is possible to directly work on e.g. `Vec<T>`
//! and `Box<[T]>` too.
//!
//! The content of the output slice will be bitwise equivalent to the input slice, as such extra
//! care has to be taken with regard to endianness.
//!
//! # Example with slices
//! ```
//! # extern crate byte_slice_cast;
//! # fn main() {
//! use byte_slice_cast::*;
//!
//! let slice = [0x0102u16, 0x0304u16, 0x0506u16];
//!
//! let converted_slice = slice.as_byte_slice();
//!
//! if cfg!(target_endian = "big") {
//!     assert_eq!(converted_slice, &[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]);
//! } else {
//!     assert_eq!(converted_slice, &[2, 1, 4, 3, 6, 5]);
//! }
//!
//! let converted_back_slice = converted_slice.as_slice_of::<u16>().unwrap();
//!
//! assert_eq!(converted_back_slice, &slice);
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! # Example with mutable slices
//! ```
//! # extern crate byte_slice_cast;
//! # fn main() {
//! use byte_slice_cast::*;
//!
//! let mut slice = [0u32; 1];
//! let mut converted_slice = slice.as_mut_byte_slice();
//! converted_slice.copy_from_slice(&[0x12, 0x34, 0x56, 0x78]);
//!
//! let mut converted_slice = converted_slice.as_mut_slice_of::<u16>().unwrap();
//! converted_slice[0] = 0xffff;
//!
//! if cfg!(target_endian = "big") {
//!     assert_eq!(&slice, &[0xffff5678]);
//! } else {
//!     assert_eq!(&slice, &[0x7856ffff]);
//! }
//!
//! # }
