/** A class for immutable linked lists representing ordered collections
 *  of elements of type `A`.
 *
 *  This class comes with two implementing case classes `scala.Nil`
 *  and `scala.::` that implement the abstract members `isEmpty`,
 *  `head` and `tail`.
 *
 *  This class is optimal for last-in-first-out (LIFO), stack-like access patterns. If you need another access
 *  pattern, for example, random access or FIFO, consider using a collection more suited to this than `List`.
 *
 *  $usesMutableState
 *
 *  ==Performance==
 *  '''Time:''' `List` has `O(1)` prepend and head/tail access. Most other operations are `O(n)` on the number of elements in the list.
 *  This includes the index-based lookup of elements, `length`, `append` and `reverse`.
 *
 *  '''Space:''' `List` implements '''structural sharing''' of the tail list. This means that many operations are either
 *  zero- or constant-memory cost.
 *  {{{
 *  val mainList = List(3, 2, 1)
 *  val with4 =    4 :: mainList  // re-uses mainList, costs one :: instance
 *  val with42 =   42 :: mainList // also re-uses mainList, cost one :: instance
 *  val shorter =  mainList.tail  // costs nothing as it uses the same 2::1::Nil instances as mainList
 *  }}}
 *
 *  @example {{{
 *  // Make a list via the companion object factory
 *  val days = List("Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday")
 *
 *  // Make a list element-by-element
 *  val when = "AM" :: "PM" :: List()
 *
 *  // Pattern match
 *  days match {
 *    case firstDay :: otherDays =>
 *      println("The first day of the week is: " + firstDay)
 *    case List() =>
 *      println("There don't seem to be any week days.")
 *  }
 *  }}}
 *
 *  @note The functional list is characterized by persistence and structural sharing, thus offering considerable
 *        performance and space consumption benefits in some scenarios if used correctly.
 *        However, note that objects having multiple references into the same functional list (that is,
 *        objects that rely on structural sharing), will be serialized and deserialized with multiple lists, one for
 *        each reference to it. I.e. structural sharing is lost after serialization/deserialization.

 *  @define Coll `List`
 *  @define thatinfo the class of the returned collection. In the standard library configuration,
 *    `That` is always `List[B]` because an implicit of type `CanBuildFrom[List, B, That]`
 *    is defined in object `List`.
 *  @define bfinfo an implicit value of class `CanBuildFrom` which determines the
 *    result class `That` from the current representation type `Repr`
 *    and the new element type `B`. This is usually the `canBuildFrom` value
 *    defined in object `List`.
