/* Awfull hacky generation of the comparison operators by doing a lexicographic
 * comparison between the choosen fields.
 *
 * ```
 * GENERATE_CMP(ClassName, me->field1, me->field2, ...)
 * ```
 *
 * will generate comparison operators semantically equivalent to:
 *
 * ```
 * bool operator<(const ClassName& other) {
 *   return field1 < other.field1 && field2 < other.field2 && ...;
 * }
 * ```
