/*
* RangedPtr is a smart pointer restricted to an address range specified at
* creation. The pointer (and any smart pointers derived from it) must remain
* within the range [start, end] (inclusive of end to facilitate use as
* sentinels). Dereferencing or indexing into the pointer (or pointers derived
* from it) must remain within the range [start, end). All the standard pointer
* operators are defined on it; in debug builds these operations assert that the
* range specified at construction is respected.
*
* In theory passing a smart pointer instance as an argument can be slightly
* slower than passing a T* (due to ABI requirements for passing structs versus
* passing pointers), if the method being called isn't inlined. If you are in
* extremely performance-critical code, you may want to be careful using this
* smart pointer as an argument type.
*
* RangedPtr<T> intentionally does not implicitly convert to T*. Use get() to
* explicitly convert to T*. Keep in mind that the raw pointer of course won't
* implement bounds checking in debug builds.
