/// A lightweight collection of key-value pairs.
///
/// Use a `KeyValuePairs` instance when you need an ordered collection of
/// key-value pairs and don't require the fast key lookup that the
/// `Dictionary` type provides. Unlike key-value pairs in a true dictionary,
/// neither the key nor the value of a `KeyValuePairs` instance must
/// conform to the `Hashable` protocol.
///
/// You initialize a `KeyValuePairs` instance using a Swift dictionary
/// literal. Besides maintaining the order of the original dictionary literal,
/// `KeyValuePairs` also allows duplicates keys. For example:
///
///     let recordTimes: KeyValuePairs = ["Florence Griffith-Joyner": 10.49,
///                                           "Evelyn Ashford": 10.76,
///                                           "Evelyn Ashford": 10.79,
///                                           "Marlies Gohr": 10.81]
///     print(recordTimes.first!)
///     // Prints "(key: "Florence Griffith-Joyner", value: 10.49)"
///
/// Some operations that are efficient on a dictionary are slower when using
/// `KeyValuePairs`. In particular, to find the value matching a key, you
/// must search through every element of the collection. The call to
/// `firstIndex(where:)` in the following example must traverse the whole
/// collection to find the element that matches the predicate:
///
///     let runner = "Marlies Gohr"
///     if let index = recordTimes.firstIndex(where: { $0.0 == runner }) {
///         let time = recordTimes[index].1
///         print("\(runner) set a 100m record of \(time) seconds.")
///     } else {
///         print("\(runner) couldn't be found in the records.")
///     }
///     // Prints "Marlies Gohr set a 100m record of 10.81 seconds."
///
/// Key-Value Pairs as a Function Parameter
/// ---------------------------------------
///
/// When calling a function with a `KeyValuePairs` parameter, you can pass
/// a Swift dictionary literal without causing a `Dictionary` to be created.
/// This capability can be especially important when the order of elements in
/// the literal is significant.
///
/// For example, you could create an `IntPairs` structure that holds a list of
/// two-integer tuples and use an initializer that accepts a
/// `KeyValuePairs` instance.
///
///     struct IntPairs {
///         var elements: [(Int, Int)]
///
///         init(_ elements: KeyValuePairs<Int, Int>) {
///             self.elements = Array(elements)
///         }
///     }
///
/// When you're ready to create a new `IntPairs` instance, use a dictionary
/// literal as the parameter to the `IntPairs` initializer. The
/// `KeyValuePairs` instance preserves the order of the elements as
/// passed.
///
///     let pairs = IntPairs([1: 2, 1: 1, 3: 4, 2: 1])
///     print(pairs.elements)
///     // Prints "[(1, 2), (1, 1), (3, 4), (2, 1)]"
