Subrange Tuple Descriptor
A subrange tuple holds a reference to a "basis" tuple, the subrange's starting index within that tuple, and the size of the subrange. The subrange is itself a tuple.
To avoid arbitrarily deep constructs, the basis tuple must not itself be a subrange tuple, nor may it be a tree tuple. In general, tree tuples contain as leaves either subrange tuples or flat tuples, and subrange tuples may only contain flat tuples.
A subrange must not be empty. Additionally, it should be at least some threshold minimum size, otherwise a flat tuple would do the job more efficiently.

Record the fact that the given L2Chunk depends on the object not changing in some way peculiar to the kind of object. Most typically, this is applied to A_Methods, triggering invalidation if A_Definitions are added to or removed from the method, but at some point we may also support slowly-changing variables.

Construct a new tuple of arbitrary Avail objects based on the given tuple, but with an additional element appended. The elements may end up being shared between the original and the copy, so the client must ensure that either the elements are marked immutable, or one of the copies is not kept after the call.
Construct a TupleDescriptor from the given SetDescriptor. Element ordering in the tuple will be arbitrary and unstable.
Answer approximately how many bits per entry are taken up by this object.

Answer a mutable copy of object that holds ints.
Answer a mutable copy of object that holds longs.
Answer a mutable copy of object that holds arbitrary objects.
Make a tuple that only contains the given range of elements of the given tuple. While it would be easy to always produce another subrange tuple, this isn't a good idea. Let the specific kind of flat tuple that is our basis decide what the cutoff size is.

Extract a 64-bit signed Java long from the specified Avail integer.
Answer whether the receiver contains the specified element.
Is the specified AvailObject an Avail atom?
Given two objects that are known to be equal, is the first one in a better form (more compact, more efficient, older generation) than the second one?
Sets only use explicit bins for collisions, otherwise they store the element itself. This works because a bin can't be an element of a set.

Answer a pojo's java object. The type is not statically checkable in Java, but at least making it generic avoids an explicit cast expression at each call site.
Given that the receiver is marked immutable, but its slots have not yet been made immutable, scan them now. For each slot found to be mutable, mark it immutable and add it to the supplied list.
Given that the receiver is marked shared, but its slots have not yet been shared, scan them now. For each slot found to be unshared, mark it and add it to the supplied list.

Print the object to the StringBuilder. By default show it as the descriptor's name and a line-by-line list of fields. If the indent is beyond the maximumIndent, indicate it's too deep without recursing. If the object is in the specified recursion list, indicate a recursive print and return.

The minimum number of integer slots an AvailObject can have if it uses this descriptor. Does not include indexed slots possibly at the end. Populated automatically by the constructor.

This read-only property can be used in place of unsupportedOperation. Using the getter produces almost the same diagnostic stack trace when executed, but is a much shorter expression.
