//! Giving a recursive type a size by boxing the field that closes the cycle.
//!
//! A schema may refer to itself, directly or through other schemas. Lowered
//! as written, `Node { child: Node }` is a type that holds itself, and rustc
//! rejects it with `E0072`. The fix rustc itself suggests is a `Box`, so this
//! pass inserts one.
//!
//! # What counts as holding a type
//!
//! A field holds its type when the size of that type counts towards the size of
//! the struct. `Vec<T>`, `HashMap<String, T>` and `Box<T>` keep what they hold
//! on the heap, so they hold nothing and already break a cycle. `Option<T>`
//! stores its `T` inline, so `Option<Node>` inside `Node` is just as infinite as
//! `Node`. That last point is easy to get wrong: making a recursive property
//! optional does not fix anything.
//!
//! # Which edge gets the box
//!
//! Every edge on a cycle, and not one chosen edge. Boxing a single edge is
//! enough for rustc, but the choice would fall out of item order, so `A` and
//! `B` that refer to each other would get one box on whichever the walk met
//! first. Boxing both states the same fact about both types.
//!
//! An alias holds its target and offers nothing to box, so a cycle made only of
//! aliases is [`Error::RecursiveAlias`] instead.
