// Two iterator types A,B are considered interoperable if either
// A is convertible to B or vice versa.
// This interoperability definition is in sync with the
// standards requirements on constant/mutable container
// iterators (23.1 [lib.container.requirements]).
//
// For compilers that don't support is_convertible
// is_interoperable gives false positives. See comments
// on operator implementation for consequences.
