nonmax provides types similar to the std `NonZero*` types, but instead requires
that their values are not the maximum for their type. This ensures that
`Option<NonMax*>` is no larger than `NonMax*`.
nonmax supports every type that has a corresponding non-zero variant in the
standard library:
* `NonMaxI8`
* `NonMaxI16`
* `NonMaxI32`
* `NonMaxI64`
* `NonMaxI128`
* `NonMaxIsize`
* `NonMaxU8`
* `NonMaxU16`
* `NonMaxU32`
* `NonMaxU64`
* `NonMaxU128`
* `NonMaxUsize`
### Example
```rust
use nonmax::{NonMaxI16, NonMaxU8};
let value = NonMaxU8::new(16).expect("16 should definitely fit in a u8");
assert_eq!(value.get(), 16);
assert_eq!(std::mem::size_of_val(&value), 1);
let signed = NonMaxI16::new(i16::min_value()).expect("minimum values are fine");
assert_eq!(signed.get(), i16::min_value());
assert_eq!(std::mem::size_of_val(&signed), 2);
let oops = NonMaxU8::new(255);
assert_eq!(oops, None);
```
### Features
* `std` (default): implements [`std::error::Error`] for [`ParseIntError`] and
[`TryFromIntError`]. Disable this feature for
[`#![no_std]`](https://rust-embedded.github.io/book/intro/no-std.html) support.
* `serde`: implements the `Serialize` and `Deserialize` traits from [`serde`](https://crates.io/crates/serde).
### Minimum Supported Rust Version (MSRV)
nonmax supports Rust 1.47.0 and newer. Until this library reaches 1.0,
changes to the MSRV will require major version bumps. After 1.0, MSRV changes
will only require minor version bumps, but will need significant justification.
