/**
 * Represents a position in a document where a specific declaration is used.
 *
 * Since we want to build uses for all files, and every single function may contain
 * tens to hundreds of uses, uses must be extremely light-weight.
 *
 * For that reason they are built in a way that a use can completely be stored in a simple vector,
 * and they only contain indices that represent the actual declaration used. Since the same
 * Declarations are used over and over again, the actual declarations are stored and indexed centrally
 * in the enclosing top-context. Additionally, because a use may refer to a not globally adressable item,
 * each top-context contains a local map that maps declaration-indices to local decarations.
 *
 * Since only a small fraction of all files is loaded as document at any time, only few documents actually
 * need smart-ranges. For that reason we do not store them here, but instead only map them to the uses
 * when there actually IS smart-ranges for them.
