+/// Pairwise filtering using bit masks.
+///
+/// This filtering method is based on two 16-bit values:
+/// - The interaction groups (the 16 left-most bits of `self.0`).
+/// - The interaction mask (the 16 right-most bits of `self.0`).
+///
+/// An interaction is allowed between two filters `a` and `b` two conditions
+/// are met simultaneously:
+/// - The interaction groups of `a` has at least one bit set to `1` in common with the interaction mask of `b`.
+/// - The interaction groups of `b` has at least one bit set to `1` in common with the interaction mask of `a`.
+/// In other words, interactions are allowed between two filter iff. the following condition is met:
+/// ```ignore
+/// ((self.0 >> 16) & rhs.0) != 0 && ((rhs.0 >> 16) & self.0) != 0
+/// ```
