Since `Ref` implements `Deref`, methods risk conflicting with methods of the same names on the target type. Note that, in #210, we considered applying the same change to `Unalign`. We choose not to do that because most uses of `Unalign` involve types with alignments greater than 1, and for these types, `Unalign` does not implement `Deref`. It's not worth making the API significantly more cumbersome in order to make it easier for this niche use case. Closes #210
