/// An opaque type that holds an Objective-C block.
///
/// The generic type `F` must be a [`dyn`] [`Fn`] that implements
/// the [`BlockFn`] trait (which means parameter and return types must be
/// "encodable"), and describes the parameter and return types of the block.
///
/// For example, you may have the type `Block<dyn Fn(u8, u8) -> i32>`, and
/// that would be a `'static` block that takes two `u8`s, and returns an
/// `i32`.
///
/// If you want the block to carry a lifetime, use `Block<dyn Fn() + 'a>`,
/// just like you'd usually do with `dyn Fn`.
///
/// [`dyn`]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/keyword.dyn.html
///
///
/// # Memory layout
///
/// This is intented to be an `extern type`, and as such the memory layout of
/// this type is _not_ guaranteed. That said, **pointers** to this type are
/// always thin, and match that of Objective-C blocks. So the layout of e.g.
/// `&Block<dyn Fn(...) -> ... + '_>` is defined, and guaranteed to be
/// pointer-sized and ABI-compatible with a block pointer.
///
///
/// # Safety invariant
///
/// Calling this potentially invokes foreign code, so you must verify, when
/// creating a reference to this, or returning it from an external API, that
/// it doesn't violate any of Rust's safety rules.
///
/// In particular, blocks are sharable with multiple references (see e.g.
/// [`Block::copy`]), so the caller must ensure that calling it can never
/// cause a data race. This usually means you'll have to use some form of
/// interior mutability, if you need to mutate something from inside a block.
//
// TODO: Potentially restrict to `F: BlockFn`, for better error messages?
