/// [`Retained`] strongly references or "retains" the given object `T`, and
/// decrements the retain count or "releases" it again when dropped, thereby
/// ensuring it will be deallocated at the right time.
///
/// The type `T` inside `Retained<T>` can be anything that implements
/// [`Message`].
///
/// This can usually be gotten from one of the methods in [the framework
/// crates], but can also be created manually with the [`msg_send!`] macro, or
/// even more manually with the [`Retained::retain`], [`Retained::from_raw`]
/// and [`Retained::retain_autoreleased`] methods.

/// [`msg_send!`]: crate::msg_send
///
///
/// # Comparison to `std` types
///
/// `Retained<T>` is the Objective-C equivalent of [`Arc`], that is, it is a
/// thread-safe reference-counting pointer, and allows cloning by bumping the
/// reference count, and weak references using [`rc::Weak`].
///
/// Unlike `Arc`, objects can be retained directly from a `&T` using
/// [`Message::retain`] (for `Arc` you need `&Arc<T>`).
///
/// Even though most Objective-C types aren't thread safe, Objective-C has no
/// concept of [`Rc`]. Retain/release operations are always atomic.
///
/// [`Arc`]: alloc::sync::Arc
/// [`rc::Weak`]: crate::rc::Weak
/// [`Rc`]: std::rc::Rc
///
///
/// # Forwarding implementations
///
/// Since `Retained<T>` is a smart pointer, it [`Deref`]s to `T`.
///
/// It also forwards the implementation of a bunch of standard library traits
/// such as [`PartialEq`], [`AsRef`], and so on, so that it becomes possible
/// to use e.g. `Retained<NSString>` as if it was `NSString`. Note that having
/// `NSString` directly is not possible since Objective-C objects cannot live
/// on the stack, but instead must reside on the heap, and as such must be
/// accessed behind a pointer or a reference (i.e. `&NSString`).
///
/// Note that because of current limitations in the Rust trait system, some
/// traits like [`Default`], [`IntoIterator`], [`FromIterator`], [`From`] and
/// [`Into`] are not directly implementable on `NSString`; for that use-case,
/// we instead provide the [`DefaultRetained`], [`RetainedIntoIterator`] and
/// [`RetainedFromIterator`] traits, which make some of the the aforementioned
/// traits implementable on `Retained`.
///
/// [`DefaultRetained`]: crate::rc::DefaultRetained
/// [`RetainedIntoIterator`]: crate::rc::RetainedIntoIterator
/// [`RetainedFromIterator`]: crate::rc::RetainedFromIterator
///
///
/// # Memory layout
///
/// This is guaranteed to have the same size and alignment as a pointer to the
/// object, `*const T`.
///
/// Additionally, it participates in the null-pointer optimization, that is,
/// `Option<Retained<T>>` is guaranteed to have the same size as
/// `Retained<T>`.
