// scoped_nsobject<> is patterned after std::unique_ptr<>, but maintains
// ownership of an NSObject subclass object.  Style deviations here are solely
// for compatibility with std::unique_ptr<>'s interface, with which everyone is
// already familiar.
//
// scoped_nsobject<> takes ownership of an object (in the constructor or in
// reset()) by taking over the caller's existing ownership claim.  The caller
// must own the object it gives to scoped_nsobject<>, and relinquishes an
// ownership claim to that object.  scoped_nsobject<> does not call -retain,
// callers have to call this manually if appropriate.
//
// scoped_nsprotocol<> has the same behavior as scoped_nsobject, but can be used
// with protocols.
//
// scoped_nsobject<> is not to be used for NSAutoreleasePools. For C++ code use
// NSAutoreleasePool; for Objective-C(++) code use @autoreleasepool instead. We
// check for bad uses of scoped_nsobject and NSAutoreleasePool at compile time
// with a template specialization (see below).
