About variadics in Rust

This is an analysis of how variadic generics could be added to Rust. It's not a proposal so much as a summary of existing work, and a toolbox for creating an eventual proposal.

Introduction

Variadic generics (aka variadic templates, or variadic tuples), are an often-requested feature that would enable traits, functions and data structures to be generic over a variable number of types.

To give a quick example, a Rust function with variadic generics might look like this:
