+// AbslFormatConvert()
+//
+// The StrFormat library provides a customization API for formatting
+// user-defined types using absl::StrFormat(). The API relies on detecting an
+// overload in the user-defined type's namespace of a free (non-member)
+// `AbslFormatConvert()` function, usually as a friend definition with the
+// following signature:
+//
+// absl::FormatConvertResult<...> AbslFormatConvert(
+// const X& value,
+// const absl::FormatConversionSpec& spec,
+// absl::FormatSink *sink);
+//
+// An `AbslFormatConvert()` overload for a type should only be declared in the
+// same file and namespace as said type.
+//
+// The abstractions within this definition include:
+//
+// * An `absl::FormatConversionSpec` to specify the fields to pull from a
+// user-defined type's format string
+// * An `absl::FormatSink` to hold the converted string data during the
+// conversion process.
+// * An `absl::FormatConvertResult` to hold the status of the returned
+// formatting operation
+//
+// The return type encodes all the conversion characters that your
+// AbslFormatConvert() routine accepts. The return value should be {true}.
+// A return value of {false} will result in `StrFormat()` returning
+// an empty string. This result will be propagated to the result of
+// `FormatUntyped`.
+//
+// Example:
+//
+// struct Point {
+// // To add formatting support to `Point`, we simply need to add a free
+// // (non-member) function `AbslFormatConvert()`. This method interprets
+// // `spec` to print in the request format. The allowed conversion characters
+// // can be restricted via the type of the result, in this example
+// // string and integral formatting are allowed (but not, for instance
+// // floating point characters like "%f"). You can add such a free function
+// // using a friend declaration within the body of the class:
+// friend absl::FormatConvertResult<absl::FormatConversionCharSet::kString |
+// absl::FormatConversionCharSet::kIntegral>
+// AbslFormatConvert(const Point& p, const absl::FormatConversionSpec& spec,
+// absl::FormatSink* s) {
+// if (spec.conversion_char() == absl::FormatConversionChar::s) {
+// s->Append(absl::StrCat("x=", p.x, " y=", p.y));
+// } else {
