/// \c TfIterator iterates over the elements in an \c STL container, according
/// to the semantics of the \ref iterator_pattern "simple iterator pattern".
/// The following examples compare the \c TfIterator to \c STL, highlighting
/// the brevity of the \c TfIterator interface.
/// \code
///     std::vector<int> vector;
///     std::set<int> set;
///
///     // TfIterator 'while' loop
///     TfIterator< std::vector<int> > i(vector);
///     while (i) {
///         int x = *i++;
///     }
///
///     // STL 'while' loop
///     std::vector<int>::iterator i = vector.begin();
///     while (i != vector.end()) {
///         int x = *i++;
///     }
///
///     // TfIterator 'for' loop
///     std::set<int> set;
///     for (TfIterator< const std::set<int> > j = set; j; ++j) {
///         int x = *j;
///     }
///
///     // STL 'for' loop
///     std::set<int> set;
///     for (std::set<int>::iterator j = set.begin(); j != set.end(); ++j) {
///         int x = *j;
///     }
/// \endcode
///
/// Note that using the \c TF_FOR_ALL() macro, even more brevity is possible.
/// For example, to print out all items of a \c set<int> \c s, we could write
/// \code
///     TF_FOR_ALL(i, s)
///         printf("%d\n", *i);
/// \endcode
///
/// Typically, a \c TfIterator is used to traverse all of the elements in an
/// \c STL container.  For ordered sets, other uses include iterating over a
/// subset of the elements in the container, and using a \c TfIterator as a
/// sentinel.
/// \code
///     // Iterate over subset
///     TfIterator< std::vector<int> > start, finish;
///     TfIterator< std::vector<int> > iterator(start, finish);
///
///     // TfIterator sentinel
///     TfIterator< std::vector<int> > sentinel(finish, finish);
///     while (iterator != sentinel) {
///         int x = *iterator++;
///     }
/// \endcode
/// 
/// \anchor iterator_pattern
/// <b>The Simple Iterator Pattern</b>
///
/// The \e simple \e iterator pattern generalizes pointer semantics to
/// traverse a set of elements, much like \c STL iterators.  However, the
/// simple iterator pattern subscribes to a simpler subset of pointer
/// operations: pointer assignment (\c operator=), auto-increment (\c
/// operator++), dereferencing (\c operator*), redirection (\c operator->),
/// and null pointer comparison (\c operator! and \c operator \c bool).  The
/// simpler interface improves code legibility for the typical set traversals
/// for which iterators are most commonly used.  It is particularly useful for
/// specifying iterators over sets of elements that are maintained by a user
/// object, since the interface calls for only one \c GetIterator() entry
/// point rather than dual \c begin() and \c end() calls.  This is especially
/// desirable when the object owns many different sets.
/// \code
///     // The simple iterator pattern.
///     class Iterator {
///         Iterator();                                     // default c'tor
///         Iterator(const Iterator&);                      // copy c'tor
///         Iterator& operator=(const Iterator &);          // assignment
///         Iterator& operator++();                         // pre-increment
///         Iterator operator++(int);                       // post-increment
///         reference operator *();                         // dereference
///         pointer operator->();                           // redirection
///         bool operator==(const Iterator &) const;        // equality
///         bool operator!=(const Iterator &) const;        // inequality
