    //! Lift a value into an `Applicative` structure.
    //! @ingroup group-Applicative
    //!
    //! `lift<A>` takes a normal value and embeds it into a structure whose
    //! shape is represented by the `A` `Applicative`. Note that the value
    //! may be a function, in which case the created structure may be
    //! `ap`plied to another `Applicative` structure containing values.
    //!
    //!
    //! Signature
    //! ---------
    //! Given an Applicative `A`, the signature is
    //! @f$ \mathtt{lift}_A : T \to A(T) @f$.
    //!
    //! @tparam A
    //! A tag representing the `Applicative` into which the value is lifted.
    //!
    //! @param x
    //! The value to lift into the applicative.
    //!
    //!
    //! Example
    //! -------
    //! @include example/lift.cpp
