//! This module handles the relationships between "free regions", i.e., lifetime parameters.
//! Ordinarily, free regions are unrelated to one another, but they can be related via implied
//! or explicit bounds. In that case, we track the bounds using the `TransitiveRelation` type,
//! and use that to decide when one free region outlives another, and so forth.
