rustc_private)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.
