/// Type that can be non-`unsafe`ly transmuted into
///
/// In most cases this is a [*POD class*](http://eel.is/c++draft/class#10)
/// or a [*trivially copyable class*](http://eel.is/c++draft/class#6).
///
/// Marker trait for `guarded_transmute_pod_*()` functions.
///
/// *Warning*: if you transmute into a floating-point type you will have a chance to create a signaling NaN,
/// which, while not illegal, can be unwieldy. Check out [`util::designalise_f{32,64}()`](util/index.html)
/// for a remedy.
///
/// *Nota bene*: guarded transmutation to `bool`s is provided as separate functions, because they're
/// restricted to being `0` or `1`, which means that an additional value check is required.
///
/// # Safety
///
/// It is only safe to implement `PodTransmutable` for a type `T` if it is safe for a slice of any arbitrary data
/// `&[u8]` of length `sizeof<T>()` to be [`transmute()`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/mem/fn.transmute.html)d
/// to a unit-length `&[T]`.
///
/// Consult the [Transmutes section](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nomicon/transmutes.html) of the Nomicon for more details.
