/**
 * Iterator over bins of a record.
 *
 * ## Initialization
 *
 * The as_record_iterator can be initialized via:
 *
 * - as_record_iterator_init() — initializes a stack allocated 
 *   as_record_iterator.
 * - as_record_iterator_new() — allocated and initializes an 
 *   as_record_iterator on the heap.
 *
 * Both of the function require the record on which it will iterate.
 *
 * To initialize an as_record_iterator on the stack:
 *
 * ~~~~~~~~~~{.c}
 * as_record_iterator it;
 * as_record_iterator_init(&it, record);
 * ~~~~~~~~~~
 *
 * To initialize an as_record_iterator on the heap:
 *
 * ~~~~~~~~~~{.c}
 * as_record_iterator * it as_record_iterator_new(record);
 * ~~~~~~~~~~
 *
 * ## Destruction 
 *
 * When you no longer require the iterator, you should release it and 
 * associated resource via as_record_iterator_destroy():
 *
 * ~~~~~~~~~~{.c}
 * as_record_iterator_destroy(it);
 * ~~~~~~~~~~
 *
 * ## Usage
 *
 * With an initialized as_record_iterator, you can traverse the bins of
 * a record. 
 *
 * Traversal is usually performed by first checking to see if 
 * the there are any bins available to traverse to via 
 * as_record_iterator_has_next(), which returns true if there are more bins,
 * or false if there are no more bins. 
 *
 * ~~~~~~~~~~{.c}
 * as_record_iterator_has_next(&it);
 * ~~~~~~~~~~
 *
 * When you are sure there are more bins, then you will use 
 * as_record_iterator_next() to read the next bin. If there are no bins 
 * available, then NULL is returned.
 *
 * ~~~~~~~~~~{.c}
 * as_bin* bin = as_record_iterator_next(&it);
 * ~~~~~~~~~~
 *
 * If  as_record_iterator_next() returns a bin, then you can use the following
 * functions to get information about the bin:
 *
 * - as_bin_get_name() — Get the bin's name.
 * - as_bin_get_value() — Get the bin's value.
 * - as_bin_get_type() — Get the bin's values' types.
 *
 * Most often, a traversal is performed in a while loop. The following is a 
 * simple example:
 *
 * ~~~~~~~~~~{.c}
 * while ( as_record_iterator_has_next(&it) ) {
 *     as_bin* bin = as_record_iterator_next(&it);
 *     char* name = as_bin_get_name(bin);
 *     as_val* value = (as_val*) as_bin_get_value(bin);
 * }
 * ~~~~~~~~~~
 *
 * @relates as_record
