LGPL 3.0

If there is something let me know or open a pull request for it. Try to keep the implementation generic as in by using parameterized types via D's templating capabilities.

Only make use of exceptions where it is absolutely necessary, normally go for an exception-less implementation and have an exception-based one which re-uses the former.
