//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// SMILType: Interface for defining the basic operations needed for animating
// a particular kind of data (e.g. lengths, colors, transformation matrices).
//
// This interface is never used directly but always through a SMILValue that
// bundles together a pointer to a concrete implementation of this interface and
// the data upon which it should operate.
//
// We keep the data and type separate rather than just providing different
// subclasses of SMILValue. This is so that sizeof(SMILValue) is the same
// for all value types, allowing us to have a type-agnostic nsTArray of
// SMILValue objects (actual objects, not pointers). It also allows most
// SMILValues (except those that need to allocate extra memory for their
// data) to be allocated on the stack and directly assigned to one another
// provided performance benefits for the animation code.
//
// Note that different types have different capabilities. Roughly speaking there
// are probably three main types:
//
// +---------------------+---------------+-------------+------------------+
// | CATEGORY: | DISCRETE | LINEAR | ADDITIVE |
// +---------------------+---------------+-------------+------------------+
// | Example: | strings, | path data? | lengths, |
// | | color k/words?| | RGB color values |
// | | | | |
// | -- Assign? | X | X | X |
// | -- Add? | - | X? | X |
// | -- SandwichAdd? | - | -? | X |
// | -- ComputeDistance? | - | - | X? |
// | -- Interpolate? | - | X | X |
