/// A trait describing smart reference counted pointers.
///
/// Note that in a way `Option<Arc<T>>` is also a smart reference counted pointer, just one that
/// can hold NULL.
///
/// The trait is unsafe, because a wrong implementation will break the
/// [`ArcSwapAny`](struct.ArcSwapAny.html) implementation and lead to UB.
///
/// This is not actually expected for downstream crate to implement, this is just means to reuse
/// code for `Arc` and `Option<Arc>` variants. However, it is theoretically possible (if you have
/// your own `Arc` implementation).
///
/// It is also implemented for `Rc`, but that is not considered very useful (because the
/// `ArcSwapAny` is not `Send` or `Sync`, therefore there's very little advantage for it to be
/// atomic).
///
/// Aside from the obvious properties (like that incrementing and decrementing a reference count
/// cancel each out and that having less references tracked than how many things actually point to
/// the value is fine as long as the count doesn't drop to 0), it also must satisfy that if two
/// pointers have the same value, they point to the same object. This is specifically not true for
/// ZSTs, but it is true for `Arc`s of ZSTs, because they have the reference counts just after the
/// value. It would be fine to point to a type-erased version of the same object, though (if one
/// could use this trait with unsized types in the first place).
///
/// Furthermore, the type should be Pin (eg. if the type is cloned or moved, it should still
/// point/deref to the same place in memory).
