The variant attribute

The #[sum] tag collects all expressions with #[variant] attributes and wraps them with enum constructors in the form of SomeEnumName::_0, SomeEnumName::_1.. respectively. For example, the function body in previous example will be expanded to:

#![allow(unused)]
fn main() {
if cond {
    __SumType2::_0( 1_i32 )
} else {
    __SumType2::_1( "false" )
}
}

Merge variants of the same types

The #[variant] attribute supports merging by giving the same name of merged variants. For example, a series of expresions with #[variant( foo )], #[variant], #[variant( foo )] will be wrapped with _0, _1, _0.
