/// \brief CRTP base class which implements the entire standard iterator facade
/// in terms of a minimal subset of the interface.
///
/// Use this when it is reasonable to implement most of the iterator
/// functionality in terms of a core subset. If you need special behavior or
/// there are performance implications for this, you may want to override the
/// relevant members instead.
///
/// Note, one abstraction that this does *not* provide is implementing
/// subtraction in terms of addition by negating the difference. Negation isn't
/// always information preserving, and I can see very reasonable iterator
/// designs where this doesn't work well. It doesn't really force much added
/// boilerplate anyways.
///
/// Another abstraction that this doesn't provide is implementing increment in
/// terms of addition of one. These aren't equivalent for all iterator
/// categories, and respecting that adds a lot of complexity for little gain.
