//! Path-based metadata to serialize with a value.
//!
//! Path-based in this context means that the metadata is linked
//! to the data in a relative and hierarchical fashion by tracking
//! the current absolute path of the field being serialized.
//! # Example
//! ```
//! # use ron::ser::{PrettyConfig, path_meta::Field};
//! #[derive(serde::Serialize)]
//! struct Creature {
//! seconds_since_existing: usize,
//! linked: Option<Box<Self>>,
//! }
//! let mut config = PrettyConfig::default();
//! config
//! .path_meta
//! // The path meta defaults to no root structure,
//! // so we either provide a prebuilt one or initialize
//! // an empty one to build.
//! .get_or_insert_with(Field::empty)
//! .build_fields(|fields| {
//! fields
//! // Get or insert the named field
//! .field("seconds_since_existing")
//! .with_doc("Outer seconds_since_existing");
//! .field("linked")
//! // Doc metadata is serialized preceded by three forward slashes and a space for each line
//! .with_doc("Optional.\nProvide another creature to be wrapped.")
//! // Even though it's another Creature, the fields have different paths, so they are addressed separately.
//! .with_doc("Inner seconds_since_existing");
//! });
//! let value = Creature {
//! seconds_since_existing: 0,
//! linked: Some(Box::new(Creature {
//! linked: None,
//! })),
//! };
//! let s = ron::ser::to_string_pretty(&value, config).unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(s, r#"(
//! /// Outer seconds_since_existing
//! /// Optional.
//! /// Provide another creature to be wrapped.
//! linked: Some((
//! /// Inner seconds_since_existing
//! )),
//! )"#);
//! # Identical paths
//! Especially in enums and tuples it's possible for fields
//! to share a path, thus being unable to be addressed separately.
//! ```no_run
//! enum Kind {
//! A {
//! field: (),
//! }, // ^
//! // cannot be addressed separately because they have the same path
//! B { // v
//! },
//! struct A {
//! struct B {
//! type Value = (
//! A,
//! // ^
//! // These are different types, but they share the path `field`
//! // v
//! B,
//! );
