     * Two very handy templates, this allows us
     * to easily follow the T::type and T::value
     * convention by simply inheriting from specific
     * instantiations of these templates.
     * Examples:
     *  1) We need a struct with int typedef'd to type:
     *
     *      stuct has_type_int: aux::type<int> {};
     *      typename has_type_int::type x = 1; // x is of type int
     *
     *  2) We need a struct with static size_t member called value:
     *
     *      struct has_value_size_t: aux::value<size_t, 1u> {};
     *      std::printf("%u\n", has_value_size_t::value); // prints "1\n"
