An endpoint must meet the requirements of <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">CopyConstructible</span></code>
types (C++ Std, 20.1.3), and the requirements of <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">Assignable</span></code>
types (C++ Std, 23.1).

In the table below, <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">X</span></code> denotes
an endpoint class, <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">a</span></code> denotes
a value of type <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">X</span></code>, <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">s</span></code> denotes a size in bytes, and <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">u</span></code> denotes an identifier.
