//      The following implements the BitUnion system of defining bitfields
//on top of an underlying class. This is done through the pervasive use of
//both named and unnamed unions which all contain the same actual storage.
//Since they're unioned with each other, all of these storage locations
//overlap. This allows all of the bitfields to manipulate the same data
//without having to have access to each other. More details are provided with
//the individual components.
 
//This class wraps around another which defines getter/setter functions which
//manipulate the underlying data. The type of the underlying data and the type
//of the bitfield itself are inferred from the argument types of the setter
//function.

//as the BitUnion names themselves are all distinct and nothing else uses
//the BitfieldUnderlyingClasses namespace, which is unlikely. The class itself
//creates a typedef of the "type" parameter called __StorageType. This allows
//the type to propagate outside of the macro itself in a controlled way.
//Finally, the base storage is defined which BitfieldOperators will refer to
//in the operators it defines. This macro is intended to be followed by
//bitfield definitions which will end up inside it's union. As explained
