    Defines collection_traits class and related free-standing functions.
    This facility is used to unify the access to different types of collections.
    It allows the algorithms in the library to work with STL collections, c-style
    array, null-terminated c-strings (and more) using the same interface.

        /*!
            Collection traits provide uniform access to different types of 
            collections. This functionality allows to write generic algorithms
            which work with several different kinds of collections.

            Currently following collection types are supported:
                - containers with STL compatible container interface ( see ContainerConcept )
                    ( i.e. \c std::vector<>, \c std::list<>, \c std::string<> ... )
                - c-style array 
                   ( \c char[10], \c int[15] ... )
                - null-terminated c-strings
                    ( \c char*, \c wchar_T* )
                - std::pair of iterators 
                    ( i.e \c std::pair<vector<int>::iterator,vector<int>::iterator> )

            Collection traits provide an external collection interface operations.
            All are accessible using free-standing functions.

            The following operations are supported:
                - \c size()
                - \c empty()
                - \c begin()
                - \c end()

            Container traits have somewhat limited functionality on compilers not
            supporting partial template specialization and partial template ordering.
