-/// A wrapper around a raw non-null `*mut T` that indicates that the possessor
-/// of this wrapper owns the referent. Useful for building abstractions like
-/// `Box<T>`, `Vec<T>`, `String`, and `HashMap<K, V>`.
-///
-/// Unlike `*mut T`, `Unique<T>` behaves "as if" it were an instance of `T`.
-/// It implements `Send`/`Sync` if `T` is `Send`/`Sync`. It also implies
-/// the kind of strong aliasing guarantees an instance of `T` can expect:
-/// the referent of the pointer should not be modified without a unique path to
-/// its owning Unique.
-///
-/// If you're uncertain of whether it's correct to use `Unique` for your purposes,
-/// consider using `NonNull`, which has weaker semantics.
-///
-/// Unlike `*mut T`, the pointer must always be non-null, even if the pointer
-/// is never dereferenced. This is so that enums may use this forbidden value
-/// as a discriminant -- `Option<Unique<T>>` has the same size as `Unique<T>`.
-/// However the pointer may still dangle if it isn't dereferenced.
-///
-/// Unlike `*mut T`, `Unique<T>` is covariant over `T`. This should always be correct
-/// for any type which upholds Unique's aliasing requirements.
