//! This crate provides read-only access to [ext4] filesystems. It also
//! works with [ext2] filesystems.
//!
//! The main entry point is the [`Ext4`] struct.
//!
//! [ext2]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext2
//! [ext4]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4
//!
//! # Example
//!
//! This example reads the filesystem data from a byte vector, then
//! looks at files and directories in the filesystem.
//!
//! ```
//! use ext4_view::{Ext4, Ext4Error, Metadata};
//!
//! fn in_memory_example(fs_data: Vec<u8>) -> Result<(), Ext4Error> {
//!     let fs = Ext4::load(Box::new(fs_data)).unwrap();
//!
//!     let path = "/some/file";
//!
//!     // Read a file's contents.
//!     let file_data: Vec<u8> = fs.read(path)?;
//!
//!     // Read a file's contents as a string.
//!     let file_str: String = fs.read_to_string(path)?;
//!
//!     // Check whether a path exists.
//!     let exists: bool = fs.exists(path)?;
//!
//!     // Get metadata (file type, permissions, etc).
//!     let metadata: Metadata = fs.metadata(path)?;
//!
//!     // Print each entry in a directory.
//!     for entry in fs.read_dir("/some/dir")? {
//!         let entry = entry?;
//!         println!("{}", entry.path().display());
//!     }
//!
//!     Ok(())
//! }
//! ```
//! # Loading a filesystem
//!
//! Call [`Ext4::load`] to load a filesystem. The source data can be
//! anything that implements the [`Ext4Read`] trait. The simplest form
//! of source data is a `Vec<u8>` containing the whole filesystem.
//!
//! If the `std` feature is enabled, [`Ext4Read`] is implemented for
//! [`std::fs::File`]. As a shortcut, you can also use
//! [`Ext4::load_from_path`] to open a path and read the filesystem from
//! it.
//!
//! For other cases, implement [`Ext4Read`] for your data source. This
//! trait has a single method which reads bytes into a byte slice.
//!
//! Note that the underlying data should never be changed while the
//! filesystem is in use.
//!
//! # Paths
//!
//! Paths in the filesystem are represented by [`Path`] and
//! [`PathBuf`]. These types are similar to the types of the same names
//! in [`std::path`].
//!
//! Functions that take a path as input accept a variety of types
//! including strings.
//!
//! # Errors
//!
//! Most functions return [`Ext4Error`] on failure. This type is broadly
//! similar to [`std::io::Error`], with a few notable additions:
//! * Errors that come from the underlying reader are returned as
//!   [`Ext4Error::Io`].
//! * If the filesystem is corrupt in some way, [`Ext4Error::Corrupt`]
//!   is returned.
//! * If the filesystem can't be read due to a limitation of the
//!   library, [`Ext4Error::Incompatible`] is returned. Please [file a
//!   bug][issues] if you encounter an incompatibility so we know to
//!   prioritize a fix!
//!
//! Some functions list specific errors that may occur. These lists are
//! not exhaustive; calling code should be prepared to handle other
//! errors such as [`Ext4Error::Io`].
//!
