/// Lightweight error class with error context and mandatory checking.
///
/// Instances of this class wrap a ErrorInfoBase pointer. Failure states
/// are represented by setting the pointer to a ErrorInfoBase subclass
/// instance containing information describing the failure. Success is
/// represented by a null pointer value.
///
/// Instances of Error also contains a 'Checked' flag, which must be set
/// before the destructor is called, otherwise the destructor will trigger a
/// runtime error. This enforces at runtime the requirement that all Error
/// instances be checked or returned to the caller.
///
/// There are two ways to set the checked flag, depending on what state the
/// Error instance is in. For Error instances indicating success, it
/// is sufficient to invoke the boolean conversion operator. E.g.:
///
///   @code{.cpp}
///   Error foo(<...>);
///
///   if (auto E = foo(<...>))
///     return E; // <- Return E if it is in the error state.
///   // We have verified that E was in the success state. It can now be safely
///   // destroyed.
///   @endcode
///
/// A success value *can not* be dropped. For example, just calling 'foo(<...>)'
/// without testing the return value will raise a runtime error, even if foo
/// returns success.
///
/// For Error instances representing failure, you must use either the
/// handleErrors or handleAllErrors function with a typed handler. E.g.:
///
///   @code{.cpp}
///   class MyErrorInfo : public ErrorInfo<MyErrorInfo> {
///     // Custom error info.
///   };
///
///   Error foo(<...>) { return make_error<MyErrorInfo>(...); }
///
///   auto E = foo(<...>); // <- foo returns failure with MyErrorInfo.
///   auto NewE =
///     handleErrors(E,
///       [](const MyErrorInfo &M) {
///         // Deal with the error.
///       },
///       [](std::unique_ptr<OtherError> M) -> Error {
///         if (canHandle(*M)) {
///           // handle error.
///           return Error::success();
///         }
///         // Couldn't handle this error instance. Pass it up the stack.
///         return Error(std::move(M));
///       );
///   // Note - we must check or return NewE in case any of the handlers
///   // returned a new error.
///   @endcode
///
/// The handleAllErrors function is identical to handleErrors, except
/// that it has a void return type, and requires all errors to be handled and
/// no new errors be returned. It prevents errors (assuming they can all be
/// handled) from having to be bubbled all the way to the top-level.
