* DebugOnly contains a value of type T, but only in debug builds. In release
* builds, it does not contain a value. This helper is intended to be used with
* MOZ_ASSERT()-style macros, allowing one to write:
*
* DebugOnly<bool> check = func();
* MOZ_ASSERT(check);
*
* more concisely than declaring |check| conditional on #ifdef DEBUG, but also
* without allocating storage space for |check| in release builds.
*
* DebugOnly instances can only be coerced to T in debug builds. In release
* builds they don't have a value, so type coercion is not well defined.
*
* Note that DebugOnly instances still take up one byte of space, plus padding,
* when used as members of structs.
