Description

So far, Join, Race, etc are implemented for tuples, vecs, and arrays. It might make sense to also provide an implementation for SmallVec (possibly behind a feature-gate).

Although, upon writing this, I'm starting to think that fixed size arrays probably cover the same scenarios pretty well.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Review how Join and Race are implemented for tuples, vecs, and arrays. Understand SmallVec's API and memory layout. Implement the traits for SmallVec, optionally behind a feature gate.
