/// Types that can be split in two.
///
/// This trait generalizes Rust's existing support for splitting slices to
/// support slices and slice-based dynamically-sized types ("slice DSTs").
///
/// # Implementation
///
/// **Do not implement this trait yourself!** Instead, use
/// [`#[derive(SplitAt)]`][derive]; e.g.:
///
/// ```
/// # use zerocopy_derive::{SplitAt, KnownLayout};
/// #[derive(SplitAt, KnownLayout)]
/// #[repr(C)]
/// struct MyStruct<T: ?Sized> {
/// # /*
///     ...,
/// # */
///     // `SplitAt` types must have at least one field.
///     field: T,
/// }
/// ```
///
/// This derive performs a sophisticated, compile-time safety analysis to
/// determine whether a type is `SplitAt`.
///
/// # Safety
///
/// This trait does not convey any safety guarantees to code outside this crate.
///
/// You must not rely on the `#[doc(hidden)]` internals of `SplitAt`. Future
/// releases of zerocopy may make backwards-breaking changes to these items,
/// including changes that only affect soundness, which may cause code which
/// uses those items to silently become unsound.
