/**
* build_assert - routines for build-time assertions
*
* This code provides routines which will cause compilation to fail should some
* assertion be untrue: such failures are preferable to run-time assertions,
* but much more limited since they can only depends on compile-time constants.
*
* These assertions are most useful when two parts of the code must be kept in
* sync: it is better to avoid such cases if possible, but seconds best is to
* detect invalid changes at build time.
*
* For example, a tricky piece of code might rely on a certain element being at
* the start of the structure. To ensure that future changes don't break it,
* you would catch such changes in your code like so:
*
* Example:
* #include <stddef.h>
* #include <ccan/build_assert/build_assert.h>
*
* struct foo {
* char string[5];
* int x;
* };
*
* static char *foo_string(struct foo *foo)
* {
* // This trick requires that the string be first in the structure
* BUILD_ASSERT(offsetof(struct foo, string) == 0);
* return (char *)foo;
* }
