     * Contains the first and last DOM nodes of a component's rendered template.
     * These nodes can be used to traverse all of the DOM nodes that belong to a
     * particular component.
     *
     * Note that a component's first and last nodes *can* change over time, if the
     * beginning or ending of the template is dynamic. You should always access
     * `bounds` directly at the time a node is needed to ensure you are acting on
     * up-to-date nodes.
     *
     * ### Examples
     *
     * For components with a single root element, `this.bounds.firstNode` and
     * `this.bounds.lastNode` are the same.
     *
     * ```hbs
     * <div class="user-profile">
     *   <Avatar @user={{user}} />
     * </div>
     * ```
     *
     * ```ts
     * export default class extends Component {
     *   didInsertElement() {
     *     let { firstNode, lastNode } = this.bounds;
     *     console.log(firstNode === lastNode); // true
     *     console.log(firstNode.className); // "user-profile"
     *   }
     * }
     * ```
     *
     * For components with multiple root nodes, `this.bounds.firstNode` refers to
     * the first node in the template and `this.bounds.lastNode` refers to the
     * last:
     *
     * ```hbs
     * Welcome to Glimmer.js!
     * <span>Let's build some components!</span>
     * <img src="logo.png">
     * ```
     *
     * ```ts
     * export default class extends Component {
     *   didInsertElement() {
     *     let { firstNode, lastNode } = this.bounds;
     *
     *     // Walk all of the DOM siblings from the
     *     // firstNode to the lastNode and push their
     *     // nodeName into an array.
     *     let node = firstNode;
     *     let names = [firstNode.nodeName];
     *     do {
     *       node = node.nextSibling;
     *       names.push(node.nodeName);
     *     } while (node !== lastNode);
     *
     *     console.log(names);
     *     // ["#text", "SPAN", "IMG"]
     *   }
     * }
     * ```
     *
     * The bounds can change if the template has dynamic content at the beginning
     * or the end:
     *
     * ```hbs
     * {{#if user.isAdmin}}
     *   <span class="warning">Admin</span>
     * {{else}}
     *   Normal User
     * {{/if}}
     * ```
     *
     * In this example, the `firstNode` will change between a `span` element and a
     * `TextNode` as the `user.isAdmin` property changes.
     */
    bounds: Bounds;
    /**
     * The element corresponding to the main element of the component's template.
     * The main element is the element in the template that has `...attributes` set on it:
     *
     * ```hbs
     * <h1>Modal</h1>
     * <div class="contents" ...attributes>
     *   {{yield}}
     * </div>
     * ```
     *
     * In this example, `this.element` would be the `div` with the class `contents`.
     *
     * You should not try to access this property until after the component's `didInsertElement()`
     * lifecycle hook is called.
