/**
 * Ring buffer implementation, a.k.a circular buffer,
 * exposing <i>lock-free</i>
 * {@link #get() get*(..)} and {@link #put(Object) put*(..)} methods.
 *
 * This data structure is also supporting \ref Concurrency.
 *
 * Implementation utilizes the <i>Always Keep One Slot Open</i>,
 * hence implementation maintains an internal array of `capacity` <i>plus one</i>!
 *
 * ### Characteristics
 * - Read position points to the last read element.
 * - Write position points to the last written element.
 *
 * <table border="1">
 *   <tr><td>Empty</td><td>writePos == readPos</td><td>size == 0</td></tr>
 *   <tr><td>Full</td><td>writePos == readPos - 1</td><td>size == capacity</td></tr>
 * </table>
 * <pre>
 * Empty [RW][][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ] ; W==R
 * Avail [ ][ ][R][.][.][.][.][W] ; W > R
 * Avail [.][.][.][W][ ][ ][R][.] ; W <  R - 1
 * Full  [.][.][.][.][.][W][R][.] ; W==R-1
 * </pre>
 *
 *
 * ### Thread Safety
 * Thread safety is guaranteed, considering the mode of operation as described below.
 *
 * @anchor ringbuffer_single_pc
 * #### One producer-thread and one consumer-thread
 * Expects one producer-thread at a time and one consumer-thread at a time concurrently.
 * Threads can be different or the same.
 *
 * This is the default mode with the least std::mutex operations.
 * - Only blocking producer put() and consumer get() waiting for
 * free slots or available data will utilize lock and wait for the corresponding operation.
 * - Otherwise implementation is <i>lock-free</i> and relies on SC-DRF via atomic memory barriers.
 *
 * See setMultiPCEnabled().
 *
 * Implementation is thread safe if:
 * - {@link #put() put*(..)} operations from one producer-thread at a time.
 * - {@link #get() get*(..)} operations from one consumer-thread at a time.
 * - {@link #put() put*(..)} producer and {@link #get() get*(..)} consumer threads can be different or the same.
 *
 * @anchor ringbuffer_multi_pc
 * #### Multiple producer-threads and multiple consumer-threads
 * Expects multiple producer-threads and multiple consumer-threads concurrently.
 * Threads can be different or the same.
 *
 * This operation mode utilizes a specific multi-producer and -consumer lock,
 * synchronizing {@link #put() put*(..)} and {@link #get() get*(..)} operations separately.
 *
 * Use setMultiPCEnabled() to enable or disable multiple producer and consumer mode.
 *
 * Implementation is thread safe if:
 * - {@link #put() put*(..)} operations concurrently from multiple threads.
 * - {@link #get() get*(..)} operations concurrently from multiple threads.
 * - {@link #put() put*(..)} producer and {@link #get() get*(..)} consumer threads can be different or the same.
 *
 * #### Interruption of Consumer and Producer
 * To allow an application to unblock a potentially blocked producer (writer)
 * or consumer (reader) thread once,
 * one can call interruptWriter() or interruptReader() respectively.
 *
 * #### Marking End of Input Stream (EOS)
 * To allow an application to mark the end of input stream,
 * i.e. the producer (write) has completed filling the ringbuffer,
 * one can call set_end_of_input().
 *
 * Calling set_end_of_input(true) will unblock all read-operations from this point onwards.
 * A potentially currently blocked reader thread is also interrupted and hence unblocked.
 *

 * @anchor ringbuffer_ntt_params
 * ### Non-Type Template Parameter (NTTP) controlling Value_type memory
 * See @ref darray_ntt_params.
 *
 * #### use_memmove
 * `use_memmove` see @ref darray_memmove.
 *
 * #### use_memcpy
 * `use_memcpy` has more strict requirements than `use_memmove`,
 * i.e. strictly relies on Value_type being `std::is_trivially_copyable_v<Value_type>`.
 *
 * It allows to merely use memory operations w/o the need for constructor or destructor.
 *
 * See [Trivial destructor](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/destructor#Trivial_destructor)
 * being key requirement to [TriviallyCopyable](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/named_req/TriviallyCopyable).
 * > A trivial destructor is a destructor that performs no action.
 * > Objects with trivial destructors don't require a delete-expression and may be disposed of by simply deallocating their storage.
 * > All data types compatible with the C language (POD types) are trivially destructible.`
 *
 * #### use_secmem
 * `use_secmem` see @ref darray_secmem.
 *
 * @see @ref darray_ntt_params
 * @see jau::sc_atomic_critical
