`SmallVec<T, N>` is, in essence, just an `enum` with two variants:

- `LocalBuf`: a buffer allocated locally inside the `SmallVec` itself.
- `RemoteBuf`: a `Vec<T>`, i.e., a remote buffer allocated on the heap.


The capacity of the local buffer is specified at compile time as a constant generic argument to `SmallVec` thanks to *const generics*.
