/// A SIMD vector with the shape of `[T; N]` but the operations of `T`.
///
/// `Simd<T, N>` supports the operators (+, *, etc.) that `T` does in "elementwise" fashion.
/// These take the element at each index from the left-hand side and right-hand side,
/// perform the operation, then return the result in the same index in a vector of equal size.
/// However, `Simd` differs from normal iteration and normal arrays:
/// - `Simd<T, N>` executes `N` operations in a single step with no `break`s
/// - `Simd<T, N>` can have an alignment greater than `T`, for better mechanical sympathy
///
/// By always imposing these constraints on `Simd`, it is easier to compile elementwise operations
/// into machine instructions that can themselves be executed in parallel.
///
/// ```rust
/// # #![feature(portable_simd)]
/// # use core::simd::{Simd};
/// # use core::array;
/// let a: [i32; 4] = [-2, 0, 2, 4];
/// let b = [10, 9, 8, 7];
/// let sum = array::from_fn(|i| a[i] + b[i]);
/// let prod = array::from_fn(|i| a[i] * b[i]);
///
/// // `Simd<T, N>` implements `From<[T; N]>`
/// let (v, w) = (Simd::from(a), Simd::from(b));
/// // Which means arrays implement `Into<Simd<T, N>>`.
/// assert_eq!(v + w, sum.into());
/// assert_eq!(v * w, prod.into());
/// ```
///
///
/// `Simd` with integer elements treats operators as wrapping, as if `T` was [`Wrapping<T>`].
/// Thus, `Simd` does not implement `wrapping_add`, because that is the default behavior.
/// This means there is no warning on overflows, even in "debug" builds.
/// For most applications where `Simd` is appropriate, it is "not a bug" to wrap,
/// and even "debug builds" are unlikely to tolerate the loss of performance.
/// You may want to consider using explicitly checked arithmetic if such is required.
/// Division by zero on integers still causes a panic, so
/// you may want to consider using `f32` or `f64` if that is unacceptable.
///
/// [`Wrapping<T>`]: core::num::Wrapping
///
/// # Layout
/// `Simd<T, N>` has a layout similar to `[T; N]` (identical "shapes"), with a greater alignment.
/// `[T; N]` is aligned to `T`, but `Simd<T, N>` will have an alignment based on both `T` and `N`.
/// Thus it is sound to [`transmute`] `Simd<T, N>` to `[T; N]` and should optimize to "zero cost",
/// but the reverse transmutation may require a copy the compiler cannot simply elide.
///
/// # ABI "Features"
/// Due to Rust's safety guarantees, `Simd<T, N>` is currently passed and returned via memory,
/// not SIMD registers, except as an optimization. Using `#[inline]` on functions that accept
/// `Simd<T, N>` or return it is recommended, at the cost of code generation time, as
/// inlining SIMD-using functions can omit a large function prolog or epilog and thus
/// improve both speed and code size. The need for this may be corrected in the future.
///
/// Using `#[inline(always)]` still requires additional care.
///
/// # Safe SIMD with Unsafe Rust
///
/// Operations with `Simd` are typically safe, but there are many reasons to want to combine SIMD with `unsafe` code.
/// Care must be taken to respect differences between `Simd` and other types it may be transformed into or derived from.
/// In particular, the layout of `Simd<T, N>` may be similar to `[T; N]`, and may allow some transmutations,
/// but references to `[T; N]` are not interchangeable with those to `Simd<T, N>`.
/// Thus, when using `unsafe` Rust to read and write `Simd<T, N>` through [raw pointers], it is a good idea to first try with
/// [`read_unaligned`] and [`write_unaligned`]. This is because:
/// - [`read`] and [`write`] require full alignment (in this case, `Simd<T, N>`'s alignment)
/// - `Simd<T, N>` is often read from or written to [`[T]`](slice) and other types aligned to `T`
/// - combining these actions violates the `unsafe` contract and explodes the program into
///   a puff of **undefined behavior**
/// - the compiler can implicitly adjust layouts to make unaligned reads or writes fully aligned
///   if it sees the optimization
/// - most contemporary processors with "aligned" and "unaligned" read and write instructions
///   exhibit no performance difference if the "unaligned" variant is aligned at runtime
///
/// Less obligations mean unaligned reads and writes are less likely to make the program unsound,
/// and may be just as fast as stricter alternatives.
/// When trying to guarantee alignment, [`[T]::as_simd`][as_simd] is an option for
/// converting `[T]` to `[Simd<T, N>]`, and allows soundly operating on an aligned SIMD body,
/// but it may cost more time when handling the scalar head and tail.
/// If these are not enough, it is most ideal to design data structures to be already aligned
/// to `align_of::<Simd<T, N>>()` before using `unsafe` Rust to read or write.
/// Other ways to compensate for these facts, like materializing `Simd` to or from an array first,
/// are handled by safe methods like [`Simd::from_array`] and [`Simd::from_slice`].
///

/// [`write`]: pointer::write

//
// NOTE: Accessing the inner array directly in any way (e.g. by using the `.0` field syntax) or
// directly constructing an instance of the type (i.e. `let vector = Simd(array)`) should be
// avoided, as it will likely become illegal on `#[repr(simd)]` structs in the future. It also
