SumType is a generic sum type for modern D. It is designed to be an improved
alternative to `std.variant.Algebraic`.

Features:
  - Pattern matching, including support for introspection-based matching (★)
  - Self-referential types, using `This`
  - Works with `pure`, `@safe`, `@nogc`, `nothrow`, and `immutable` (★)
  - Compatible with `-betterC` and `-dip1000` (★)
  - Zero runtime overhead compared to hand-written C
      - No heap allocation
      - Does not rely on runtime type information (`TypeInfo`) (★)

Starred features (★) are those that are missing from `Algebraic`.

Code examples are available in the documentation (linked below).

New since the last announced version, 0.8.3:
  - SumType is now fully compatible with DIP 1000 and BetterC!
  - `match` no longer ignores implicit conversions when matching handlers to
    types.
  - Assigning to a SumType that contains pointers is now (correctly) @system.
  - Self-referential SumTypes can now be nested.
  - Invariants of SumType members are now checked.
  - Static arrays in SumTypes are now copied correctly.
  - `match` now takes template overloads of handlers into account.
  - Numerous other bug fixes and improvements.

Special thanks to George Zakhour for his contributions to this release.

Sweet! Keep up the good work.
