/// A `Producer` is effectively a "splittable `IntoIterator`". That

/// at any time: at that point, it simply produces items on demand,
/// like any iterator. But what makes a `Producer` special is that,
/// *before* we convert to an iterator, we can also **split** it at a
/// particular point using the `split_at` method. This will yield up
/// two producers, one producing the items before that point, and one
/// producing the items after that point (these two producers can then
/// independently be split further, or be converted into iterators).
/// In Rayon, this splitting is used to divide between threads.
/// See [the `plumbing` README][r] for further details.
///
/// Note that each producer will always produce a fixed number of
/// items N. However, this number N is not queryable through the API;
/// the consumer is expected to track it.

/// NB. You might expect `Producer` to extend the `IntoIterator`
/// trait. However, [rust-lang/rust#20671][20671] prevents us from
/// declaring the DoubleEndedIterator and ExactSizeIterator
/// constraints on a required IntoIterator trait, so we inline
