/// Gate implicit image and storage object dependencies.
///
/// Depending on their format, images may have external image and storage object dependencies; for
/// example, qcow2 images can reference a backing image (any image format), and an external data
/// file (pure storage object, no format).  You can override these implicit choices when opening
/// images, but if you do not, they are carried out automatically.
///
/// However, opening implicit dependencies is always done through an object of type
/// `ImplicitOpenGate`, which you pass to [`FormatDriverBuilder::open()`].  Implementing this trait
/// therefore allows you to restrict if and how images an storage objects are opened implicitly.
///
/// Anytime a storage object is opened, it is done by an [`ImplicitOpenGate::open_storage()`]
/// implementation.  Anytime a format layer is opened, it is done by an
/// [`ImplicitOpenGate::open_format()`] implementation.  Therefore, unless your implementation does
/// perform this open operation, nothing will be opened.
///
/// Do note however that whatever you open explicitly through [`FormatDriverBuilder::open()`] or
/// [`Storage::open()`] is *not* run through `ImplicitOpenGate`.
///
/// See [`PermissiveImplicitOpenGate`] and [`DenyImplicitOpenGate`].

    /// [`FormatDriverBuilder::open()`] is called by imago users.

/// Open all implicitly referenced images/files unrestricted, as requested.
///
/// Use with caution!  Allowing all implicit dependencies to be opened automatically without
/// restrictions is dangerous:
/// - if you plan to give access to the image to an untrusted third party (e.g. a VM guest), and
/// - unless the image comes from a fully trusted source.
///
/// This would give the untrusted third party potentially access to arbitrary storage object
/// accessible through imago.

/// (See also the safety section on
/// [`FormatDriverInstance::probe()`](super::drivers::FormatDriverInstance::probe()).)
