///
/// # Description {#bdldfp_uint128-description}
/// This component provides a value-semantic type,
/// `bdldfp::Uint128`, that is used to represent a 128-bit unsigned integer
/// having host-native byte order.  This component also provides a set of useful
/// bitwise manipulation operators for this type.
///
/// ## Usage {#bdldfp_uint128-usage}
///
///
/// This section illustrates intended use of this component.
///
/// ### Example 1: Representing a 128 bit pattern for IPv6 {#bdldfp_uint128-example-1-representing-a-128-bit-pattern-for-ipv6}
///
///
/// Starting in 1996, the world's TCP/IP infrastructure started the move to a
/// 128-bit addressing scheme, IPv6.  IPv4 had a useful quality in that it could
/// be represented by a single 32-bit machine word for internal routing
/// purposes.  With IPv6, the need arises to manipulate 128-bit values
/// representing IPv6 addresses for similar routing purposes.
///
/// Suppose we need to write a function that needs to take 128-bit addresses
/// indicating downstream routers in our network.
///
/// First, we forward declare the "addRouter" function that takes an IPv6
/// address indicating a router, and an IPv6 network address (a partial IP
/// address, with trailing 0's) that the router covers:
/// @code
/// void addRouter(bdldfp::Uint128 router, bdldfp::Uint128 network);
/// @endcode
/// Now we create a function that loads a set of networks and routers:
/// @code
/// void setupNetwork()
/// {
///     bdldfp::Uint128 network;
///     network.setHigh(0x4242000042420000L);
///     network.setLow(0x0);
///
///     bdldfp::Uint128 router(0x000012345678ABCDL, 0xDCBA000087654321L);
/// @endcode
/// Finally we invoke addRouter, on our network and router.
/// @code
///     addRouter(router, network);
/// }
/// @endcode
/// Notice that Uint128 values can be created from high/low pairs.
///
/// ### Example 2: Checking a 128-bit IPv6 Network Mask {#bdldfp_uint128-example-2-checking-a-128-bit-ipv6-network-mask}
///
///
/// In networks, checking a network mask is a fundamental operation.  A 128-bit
/// mask can be used to indicate if an address is in a network, and where in the
/// network an address is.
///
/// Suppose we need to decide if an address is within a network, and extract the
/// sub-address from the IPv6 address.
///
/// First, we define a function that checks a passed IPv6 address and indicates
/// the sub-address, and network membership:
/// @code
/// bool checkNetworkAddress(bdldfp::Uint128 *subAddress,
///                          bdldfp::Uint128  network,
///                          int              maskLength
///                          bdldfp::Uint128  address)
/// {
/// @endcode
/// Then, we compute a net mask for the specified `maskLength`:
/// @code
///     bdldfp::Uint128 netMask;
///     for (int i = 0; i < maskLength; ++i) {
///         netMask |= 1;
///         if (i != maskLength - 1) {
///             netMask <<= 1;
///         }
///     }
/// @endcode
/// Notice that it is possible to shift `Uint128` values as if they were a
/// native type.  Meaning that it is possible to shift a `Uint128` by 64-bits,
/// or more, in single operation, because `Uint128` functions just like a
/// built-in 128-bit integer type would.
///
/// Next, we calculate whether the passed address is within the network:
/// @code
///     bool inNetwork = network == (address & ~netMask);
/// @endcode
/// Then, we compute the subAddress, if the address is in the network:
/// @code
///     if (inNetwork) {
///         *subAddress = address & netMask;
///     }
/// @endcode
/// Now, we return whether the address is in the network, and close the
/// function:
/// @code
///     return inNetwork
/// }
/// @endcode
/// Finally, we call `checkNetworkAddress` on a test network and address:
/// @code
/// bdldfp::Uint128 subAddress;
/// assert(checkNetworkAddress(
///             &subAddress,
///             bdldfp::Uint128(0xABCD424200001234L,0x22FF12345678L),
///             bdldfp::Uint128(0xABCD424200001234L,0x22FF00000000L),
///             32); // The network has a 32-bit internal address mask.
/// assert(subAddress == 0x12345678L);
/// @endcode
/// Notice that primitive 64-bit words can be promoted to 128-bit addresses.
