// Provides a way to safely convert numeric types to enumerated values. To use
// this facility, the enum definition must be annotated with traits to specify
// the range of the enum values. Due to how specialization of class templates
// works in C++14, the `EnumTraits` specialization of the primary template must
// be defined inside the `updater` namespace, where the primary template is
// defined. Traits for enum types defined inside other scopes, such as nested
// classes or other namespaces, may not work.
