//! **Canonicalization** is the key to constructing a query in the
//! middle of type inference. Ordinarily, it is not possible to store
//! types from type inference in query keys, because they contain
//! references to inference variables whose lifetimes are too short
//! and so forth. Canonicalizing a value T1 using `canonicalize_query`
//! produces two things:
//!
//! - a value T2 where each unbound inference variable has been
//!   replaced with a **canonical variable**;
//! - a map M (of type `CanonicalVarValues`) from those canonical
//!   variables back to the original.
//!
//! We can then do queries using T2. These will give back constraints
//! on the canonical variables which can be translated, using the map
//! M, into constraints in our source context. This process of
//! translating the results back is done by the
//! `instantiate_query_result` method.
//!
//! For a more detailed look at what is happening here, check
//! out the [chapter in the rustc dev guide][c].
//!
