  /// memory as type `T` requires that the memory be bound to that type. A
  /// memory location may only be bound to one type at a time, so accessing
  /// the same memory as an unrelated type without first rebinding the memory
  /// is undefined.
  ///
  /// The number of instances of `T` referenced by the rebound buffer may be
  /// different than the number of instances of `Element` referenced by the
  /// original buffer. The number of instances of `T` will be calculated
  /// at runtime.
  /// 
  /// Any instance of `T` within the re-bound region may be initialized or
  /// uninitialized. Every instance of `Pointee` overlapping with a given
  /// instance of `T` should have the same initialization state (i.e.
  /// initialized or uninitialized.) Accessing a `T` whose underlying
  /// `Pointee` storage is in a mixed initialization state shall be
  /// undefined behaviour.
  ///
  /// Because this buffer's memory is no longer bound to its `Element` type
  /// while the `body` closure executes, do not access memory using the
  /// original buffer from within `body`. Instead, use the `body` closure's
  /// buffer argument to access the values in memory as instances of type
  /// `T`.
  ///
  /// After executing `body`, this method rebinds memory back to the original
  /// `Element` type.
  ///
  /// - Note: Only use this method to rebind the buffer's memory to a type
  ///   that is layout compatible with the currently bound `Element` type.
  ///   The stride of the temporary type (`T`) may be an integer multiple
  ///   or a whole fraction of `Element`'s stride.
  ///   To bind a region of memory to a type that does not match these
  ///   requirements, convert the buffer to a raw buffer and use the
  ///   raw buffer's `withMemoryRebound(to:)` method.
  ///   If `T` and `Element` have different alignments, this buffer's
  ///   `baseAddress` must be aligned with the larger of the two alignments.
  ///
  /// - Parameters:
  ///   - type: The type to temporarily bind the memory referenced by this
  ///     buffer. The type `T` must be layout compatible
  ///     with the pointer's `Element` type.
  ///   - body: A closure that takes a ${Mutable.lower()} typed buffer to the
  ///     same memory as this buffer, only bound to type `T`. The buffer
  ///     parameter contains a number of complete instances of `T` based
  ///     on the capacity of the original buffer and the stride of `Element`.
  ///     The closure's buffer argument is valid only for the duration of the
  ///     closure's execution. If `body` has a return value, that value
  ///     is also used as the return value for the `withMemoryRebound(to:_:)`
  ///     method.
  ///   - buffer: The buffer temporarily bound to `T`.
  /// - Returns: The return value, if any, of the `body` closure parameter.
