This is the foundation for a mutable boot information and another approach than #140. By using the
NonNull
facility, we can ensure that the compiler will not optimize away any mutable operations. I could not find a way to useUnsafeCell
here in a meaningful way.I think this approach has the advantage that the public API is barely changed - unlike in #140.
