/// Instruction identifiers:
///
/// When building complex higher level tools, fast random accesses in the
/// trace might be needed, for which each instruction requires a unique
/// identifier within its thread trace. For example, a tool might want to
/// repeatedly inspect random consecutive portions of a trace. This means that
/// it will need to first move quickly to the beginning of each section and
/// then start its iteration. Given that the number of instructions can be in
/// the order of hundreds of millions, fast random access is necessary.
///
/// An example of such a tool could be an inspector of the call graph of a
/// trace, where each call is represented with its start and end instructions.
/// Inspecting all the instructions of a call requires moving to its first
/// instruction and then iterating until the last instruction, which following
/// the pattern explained above.
///
/// Instead of using 0-based indices as identifiers, each Trace plug-in can
/// decide the nature of these identifiers and thus no assumptions can be made
/// regarding their ordering and sequentiality. The reason is that an
/// instruction might be encoded by the plug-in in a way that hides its actual
/// 0-based index in the trace, but it's still possible to efficiently find
/// it.
///
/// Requirements:
/// - For a given thread, no two instructions have the same id.
/// - In terms of efficiency, moving the cursor to a given id should be as
/// fast as possible, but not necessarily O(1). That's why the recommended
/// way to traverse sequential instructions is to use the \a
/// SBTraceCursor::Next() method and only use \a SBTraceCursor::GoToId(id)
/// sparingly.
/// Make the cursor point to the item whose identifier is \p id.
///

/// moved to it. Otherwise, \b false is returned and the cursor now points
/// to an invalid item, i.e. calling \a HasValue() will return \b false.
