//! # Lattice Variables
//!
//! This file contains generic code for operating on inference variables
//! that are characterized by an upper- and lower-bound. The logic and
//! reasoning is explained in detail in the large comment in `infer.rs`.
//!
//! The code in here is defined quite generically so that it can be
//! applied both to type variables, which represent types being inferred,
//! and fn variables, which represent function types being inferred.
//! It may eventually be applied to their types as well, who knows.
//! In some cases, the functions are also generic with respect to the
//! operation on the lattice (GLB vs LUB).
//!
//! Although all the functions are generic, we generally write the
//! comments in a way that is specific to type variables and the LUB
//! operation. It's just easier that way.
//!
//! In general all of the functions are defined parametrically
//! over a `LatticeValue`, which is a value defined with respect to
//! a lattice.

        // first to `relate_bound`). Otherwise, we would produce a
        // subtype obligation that must then be processed.
        //
        // Example: if the LHS is a type variable, and RHS is
