 *
 * ### Q&A ###
 *
 * - Q: There  are  seemingly   similar  attributes  named  #RBIMPL_ATTR_CONST,
 *      #RBIMPL_ATTR_PURE, and #RBIMPL_ATTR_NOALIAS.  What are the difference?
 *
 * - A: Allowed operations are different.
 *
 *     - #RBIMPL_ATTR_CONST ... Functions attributed by this are not allowed to
 *       read/write  _any_ pointers  at all  (there are  exceptional situations
 *       when  reading a  pointer is  possible but  forget that;  they are  too
 *       exceptional  to be  useful).  Just  remember that  everything pointer-
 *       related are NG.
 *
 *     - #RBIMPL_ATTR_PURE  ...   Functions attributed  by  this  can read  any
 *       nonvolatile pointers, but  no writes are allowed at  all.  The ability
 *       to read _any_ nonvolatile pointers  makes it possible to mark ::VALUE-
 *       taking functions as being pure, as long as they are read-only.
 *
 *     - #RBIMPL_ATTR_NOALIAS  ...  Can  both   read/write,  but  only  through
 *       pointers  passed to  the function  as parameters.   This is  a typical
 *       situation when you create a  C++ non-static member function which only
 *       concerns `this`.  No  global variables are allowed  to read/write.  So
 *       this is not a super-set of being pure.  If you want to read something,
 *       that has to  be passed to the function as  a pointer.  ::VALUE -taking
 *       functions thus cannot be attributed as such.
