 * Build-time static assertion support

 * if the supplied condition does not evaluate true.

 * The following example demonstrates use of static_assert to ensure that
 * arrays which are supposed to mirror each other have a consistent
 * size.
 *
 * This is only a fallback definition; support must be provided by the
 * compiler itself.
 *
 * @code
 * int small[4];
 * long expanded[4];
 *
 * static_assert(ARRAY_LENGTH(small) == ARRAY_LENGTH(expanded),
 *               "size mismatch between small and expanded arrays");

 *     expanded[i] = small[4];
 * @endcode

 * @param cond Expression to check for truth
 * @param msg Message to print on failure
