/**
 * Templates to manipulate template argument lists (also known as type lists).
 *
 * Some operations on alias sequences are built in to the language,
 * such as TL[$(I n)] which gets the $(I n)th type from the
 * alias sequence. TL[$(I lwr) .. $(I upr)] returns a new type
 * list that is a slice of the old one.
 *
 * Several templates in this module use or operate on eponymous templates that
 * take a single argument and evaluate to a boolean constant. Such templates
 * are referred to as $(I template predicates).
