//! Freshening is the process of replacing unknown variables with fresh types. The idea is that
//! the type, after freshening, contains no inference variables but instead contains either a
//! value for each variable or fresh "arbitrary" types wherever a variable would have been.
//!
//! Freshening is used primarily to get a good type for inserting into a cache. The result
//! summarizes what the type inferencer knows "so far". The primary place it is used right now is
//! in the trait matching algorithm, which needs to be able to cache whether an `impl` self type
//! matches some other type X -- *without* affecting `X`. That means if that if the type `X` is in
//! fact an unbound type variable, we want the match to be regarded as ambiguous, because depending
//! on what type that type variable is ultimately assigned, the match may or may not succeed.
//!
//! To handle closures, freshened types also have to contain the signature and kind of any
//! closure in the local inference context, as otherwise the cache key might be invalidated.
//! The way this is done is somewhat hacky - the closure signature is appended to the args,
//! as well as the closure kind "encoded" as a type. Also, special handling is needed when
//! the closure signature contains a reference to the original closure.
//!
//! Note that you should be careful not to allow the output of freshening to leak to the user in
//! error messages or in any other form. Freshening is only really useful as an internal detail.
//!
//! Because of the manipulation required to handle closures, doing arbitrary operations on
//! freshened types is not recommended. However, in addition to doing equality/hash
//! comparisons (for caching), it is possible to do a `ty::_match` operation between
//! 2 freshened types - this works even with the closure encoding.
//!
//! __An important detail concerning regions.__ The freshener also replaces *all* free regions with
//! 'erased. The reason behind this is that, in general, we do not take region relationships into
//! account when making type-overloaded decisions. This is important because of the design of the
//! region inferencer, which is not based on unification but rather on accumulating and then
//! solving a set of constraints. In contrast, the type inferencer assigns a value to each type
//! variable only once, and it does so as soon as it can, so it is reasonable to ask what the type
//! inferencer knows "so far".
