/** @file tuple-diagnostics.hpp
 ** an extension to typelist-diagnostics.hpp, allowing to dump the \em contents of a Tuple datatype.
 ** With the help of our [generic string converter](\ref util::toString), and the BuildTupleAccessor
 ** defined within tuple-helper.hpp, we're able to show the type and contents of any data record
 ** based on std::tuple. For unit-testing, special formatting is provided for the Num<int>
 ** test types, which makes typelist and tuples of these types a good candidate for tests.
