/* This is a RandomAccessIterator that uses a proxy to access the underlying
 * data.  Useful for packing data at bit offsets but still using STL
 * algorithms.  
 *
 * Normally I would use boost::iterator_facade but some people are too lazy to
 * install boost and still want to use my language model.  It's amazing how
 * many operators an iterator has. 
 *
 * The Proxy needs to provide:
 *   class InnerIterator;
 *   InnerIterator &Inner();
 *   const InnerIterator &Inner() const;
 *
 * InnerIterator has to implement:
 *   operator==(InnerIterator)
 *   operator<(InnerIterator)
 *   operator+=(std::ptrdiff_t)
 *   operator-(InnerIterator)
 * and of course whatever Proxy needs to dereference it.  
 *
 * It's also a good idea to specialize std::swap for Proxy.
