Change the result of `operator=` on `Mod` to return `Mod&`. In this
example:
```c++
Mod<4, int> a;
int b = (a = 8);
```
The value of `b` will now be 0, not 8, and will equal the value of `a`.
Hopefully this is less confusing to users of this class.
This introduces a new `address_t` type and two new casts: `pointer_cast`
and `address_cast` for casting between an `address_t` and a pointer.
These should make it easier to audit the codebase for casts between
pointers and integers. In particular, the remaining `reinterpret_cast`s
and `pointer_cast`s should be the only places where we could perform
invalid pointer arithmetic.
Also adds a `pointer_offset` helper that adds an offset (in bytes) to a
pointer, preserving its original type. This is a sufficiently common
pattern that it seemed worthwhile to centralise it.
Introduce a wrapper that ensure various fields of meta data, represent
valid indexes into the the address space, and not beyond the current
slab/superslab.
If a sizeclass in the metadata is corrupted, then this can be used to
force an index beyond the end of these tables. This extends the tables
to the next power of two, and uses a mask on the index, so they are
always either a valid piece of data, or zero.
