/// The `derive(FromEnv)` macro.
///
/// This macro generates a [`FromEnv`] implementation for the struct it is
/// applied to. It will generate a `from_env` function that loads the struct
/// from the environment. It will also generate an `inventory` function that
/// returns a list of all environment variables that are required to load the
/// struct.
///
/// The macro also generates a `__EnvError` type that captures errors that can
/// occur when trying to create an instance of the struct from environment
/// variables. This error type is used in the `FromEnv` trait implementation.
///
/// ## Attributes
///
/// The macro supports the following attributes:
/// - `var = ""`: The name of the environment variable. This is required if the
///   prop implements [`FromEnvVar`].
/// - `desc = ""`: A description of the environment variable. This is required
///   if the prop implements [`FromEnvVar`].
/// - `optional`: Marks the prop as optional. This is currently only used in the
///   generated `fn inventory`, and is informational.
/// - `infallible`: Marks the prop as infallible. This means that the prop
///   cannot fail to be parsed after the environment variable is loaded.
/// - `skip`: Marks the prop as skipped. This means that the prop will not be
///   loaded from the environment, and will be generated via
///   `Default::default()` instead.
///
/// ## Conditions of use
///
/// There are a few usage requirements:
///
/// - Struct props MUST implement either [`FromEnvVar`] or [`FromEnv`].
/// - If the prop implements [`FromEnvVar`], it must be tagged as follows:
///     - `var = "ENV_VAR_NAME"`: The environment variable name to load.
///     - `desc = "description"`: A description of the environment variable.
/// - If the prop is an [`Option<T>`], it must be tagged as follows:
///     - `optional`
/// - If the prop's associated error type is [`Infallible`], it must be tagged
///   as follows:
///     - `infallible`
/// - If used within this crate (`init4_bin_base`), the entire struct must be
///   tagged with `#[from_env(crate)]` (see the [`SlotCalculator`] for an
///   example).
///
/// # Examples
///
/// The following example shows how to use the macro:
///

/// # // integration tests. However, compile test fails without it.

/// Trait for loading from the environment.
///
/// This trait is for structs or other complex objects, that need to be loaded
/// from the environment. It expects that
///
/// - The struct is [`Sized`] and `'static`.
/// - The struct elements can be parsed from strings.
/// - Struct elements are at fixed env vars, known by the type at compile time.
///
/// As such, unless the env is modified, these are essentially static runtime
/// values. We do not recommend using dynamic env vars.
///
/// ## [`FromEnv`] vs [`FromEnvVar`]
///
/// While [`FromEnvVar`] deals with loading simple types from the environment,
/// [`FromEnv`] is for loading complex types. It builds a struct from the
/// environment, usually be delegating each field to a [`FromEnvVar`] or
/// [`FromEnv`] implementation. [`FromEnv`] effectively defines a singleton
/// configuration object, which is produced by loading many env vars, while
/// [`FromEnvVar`] defines a procedure for loading data from a single
/// environment variable.
///
/// ## Implementing [`FromEnv`]
///
/// Please use the [`FromEnv`](macro@FromEnv) derive macro to implement this
/// trait.
///
/// ## Note on error types
///
/// [`FromEnv`] and [`FromEnvVar`] are often deeply nested. This means that
/// error types are often nested as well. To avoid this, we use a single error
/// type [`FromEnvVar`] that wraps an inner error type. This allows us to
/// ensure that env-related errors (e.g. missing env vars) are not lost in the
/// recursive structure of parsing errors. Environment errors are always at the
/// top level, and should never be nested. **Do not use [`FromEnvErr<T>`] as
/// the `Error` associated type in [`FromEnv`].**
///
/// ```no_compile
/// // Do not do this
/// impl FromEnv for MyType {
