/// \brief Represents either an error or a value T.
///
/// ErrorOr<T> is a pointer-like class that represents the result of an
/// operation. The result is either an error, or a value of type T. This is
/// designed to emulate the usage of returning a pointer where nullptr indicates
/// failure. However instead of just knowing that the operation failed, we also
/// have an error_code and optional user data that describes why it failed.
///
/// It is used like the following.
/// \code
///   ErrorOr<Buffer> getBuffer();
///   void handleError(error_code ec);
///
///   auto buffer = getBuffer();
///   if (!buffer)
///     handleError(buffer);
///   buffer->write("adena");
/// \endcode
///
/// ErrorOr<T> also supports user defined data for specific error_codes. To use
/// this feature you must first add a template specialization of
/// ErrorOrUserDataTraits derived from std::true_type for your type in the lld
/// namespace. This specialization must have a static error_code error()
/// function that returns the error_code this data is used with.
///
/// getError<UserData>() may be called to get either the stored user data, or
/// a default constructed UserData if none was stored.
///
/// Example:
/// \code
///   struct InvalidArgError {
///     InvalidArgError() {}
///     InvalidArgError(std::string S) : ArgName(S) {}
///     std::string ArgName;
///   };
///
///   namespace llvm {
///   template<>
///   struct ErrorOrUserDataTraits<InvalidArgError> : std::true_type {
///     static error_code error() {
///       return make_error_code(errc::invalid_argument);
///     }
///   };
///   } // end namespace llvm
///
///   using namespace llvm;
///
///   ErrorOr<int> foo() {
///     return InvalidArgError("adena");
///   }
///
///   int main() {
///     auto a = foo();
///     if (!a && error_code(a) == errc::invalid_argument)
///       llvm::errs() << a.getError<InvalidArgError>().ArgName << "\n";
///   }
/// \endcode
///
/// An implicit conversion to bool provides a way to check if there was an
/// error. The unary * and -> operators provide pointer like access to the
/// value. Accessing the value when there is an error has undefined behavior.
///
/// When T is a reference type the behaivor is slightly different. The reference
/// is held in a std::reference_wrapper<std::remove_reference<T>::type>, and
/// there is special handling to make operator -> work as if T was not a
/// reference.
///
/// T cannot be a rvalue reference.
