/** Axis for non-equidistant bins on the real line.

  Binning is a O(log(N)) operation. If speed matters and the problem domain
  allows it, prefer a regular axis, possibly with a transform.

  If the axis has an overflow bin (the default), a value on the upper edge of the last
  bin is put in the overflow bin. The axis range represents a semi-open interval.

  If the overflow bin is deactivated, then a value on the upper edge of the last bin is
  still counted towards the last bin. The axis range represents a closed interval. This
  is the desired behavior for random numbers drawn from a bounded interval, which is
  usually closed.

  @tparam Value     input value type, must be floating point.
  @tparam MetaData  type to store meta data.
  @tparam Options   see boost::histogram::axis::option.
  @tparam Allocator allocator to use for dynamic memory management.
