 * @file
 * @brief C library diagnostics
 *
 * This header implements the assert.h standard header, specified in S7.2 of
 * C11.
 *
 * While not required by S4p6 as part of freestanding C, this file is useful
 * because it gives us a consistent spelling of `static_assert` across C and
 * C++. `assert` should not be used in device code.
