  ///
  /// When building complex higher level tools, fast random accesses in the

  /// identifier within its thread trace. For example, a tool might want to
  /// repeatedly inspect random consecutive portions of a trace. This means that
  /// it will need to first move quickly to the beginning of each section and
  /// then start its iteration. Given that the number of instructions can be in
  /// the order of hundreds of millions, fast random access is necessary.
  ///
  /// An example of such a tool could be an inspector of the call graph of a
  /// trace, where each call is represented with its start and end instructions.
  /// Inspecting all the instructions of a call requires moving to its first
  /// instruction and then iterating until the last instruction, which following
  /// the pattern explained above.
  ///
  /// Instead of using 0-based indices as identifiers, each Trace plug-in can
  /// decide the nature of these identifiers and thus no assumptions can be made
  /// regarding their ordering and sequentiality. The reason is that an
  /// instruction might be encoded by the plug-in in a way that hides its actual
  /// 0-based index in the trace, but it's still possible to efficiently find
  /// it.

  /// Requirements:
  /// - For a given thread, no two instructions have the same id.
  /// - In terms of efficiency, moving the cursor to a given id should be as
  ///   fast as possible, but not necessarily O(1). That's why the recommended
  ///   way to traverse sequential instructions is to use the \a
  ///   SBTraceCursor::Next() method and only use \a SBTraceCursor::GoToId(id)
  ///   sparingly.

  /// Make the cursor point to the item whose identifier is \p id.
  ///
  /// \return
  ///     \b true if the given identifier exists and the cursor effectively
  ///     moved to it. Otherwise, \b false is returned and the cursor now points
