//! Custom implementation of `mmap(2)`
//!
//! ## Constraints
//!
//! [`FrozenMMap`] treats the mapped file as raw storage for values of `T`. Because of that, `T` must be a POD type
//! which is safe to persist and later reinterpret from bytes.
//!
//! Required properties for `T`,
//!
//! - Must use `#[repr(C)]`
//! - Should be 8-bytes aligned
//! - Must not implement [`Drop`]
//! - `size_of::<T>()` should be multiple of `8`
//!
//! *NOTE:* `T` must not contain heap owning or process-local pointers like [`Vec`], [`String`], [`Box`], references
//! and function pointers, or other fields whose bit-pattern is not stable across reopen.
//!
//! These constrains are enforced as [`FrozenMMap`] does not serialize or deserialize values. It directly reads and
//! writes `T` inside a memory mapped file. That means `T` must have a stable layout and must remain valid when the file
//! is reopened in a later process.
//!
//! ## Example
//!
//! ```
//! use frozen_core::fmmap::{FrozenMMap, FMCfg};
//!
//! const MODULE_ID: u8 = 0;
//!
//! let dir = tempfile::tempdir().unwrap();
//! let path = dir.path().join("tmp_frozen_mmap");
//!
//! let cfg = FMCfg {
//!     initial_count: 0x0A,
//!     flush_duration: std::time::Duration::from_micros(0x96),
//! };
//!
//! let mmap = FrozenMMap::<u64, MODULE_ID>::new(&path, cfg.clone()).unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(mmap.total_slots(), 0x0A);
//!
//! let epoch = unsafe { mmap.write(0, |v| *v = 0xDEADC0DE) }.unwrap();
//! mmap.wait_for_durability(epoch).unwrap();
//!
//! let val = unsafe { mmap.read(0, |v| *v) }.unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(val, 0xDEADC0DE);
//!
//! drop(mmap);
//!
//! let reopened = FrozenMMap::<u64, MODULE_ID>::new_grown(&path, cfg, 0x05).unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(reopened.total_slots(), 0x0A + 0x05);
//!

//! assert_eq!(val, 0xDEADC0DE);
