+/// A trait for implementing arbitrary return types in the `main` function.
+///
+/// The c-main function only supports to return integers as return type.
+/// So, every type implementing the `Termination` trait has to be converted
+/// to an integer.
+///
+/// The default implementations are returning `libc::EXIT_SUCCESS` to indicate
+/// a successful execution. In case of a failure, `libc::EXIT_FAILURE` is returned.
