//! Single-threaded reference-counting persistent pointers
//!
//! [`Prc`] is a persistent pointer sharing the underlying data between multiple
//! owners. To create a new strong reference, you may use [`pclone`] function.
//! When the last owner of data goes out of scope, the strong reference count
//! becomes zero, and the owner drops the allocation.
//! 
//! # Cyclic References
//! If there is a cycle in the chain of references, dropping the link may yield
//! a memory leak. For example, assume that we have three nodes of `A`, `B`, and
//! `C`, which are connected together like figure (a) below:
//! 
//! ```text
//! Strong Refs:     1    2    1        1    1    1        1    1    1
//!                  A -▷ B -▷ C        A    B -▷ C        A -▷ B -▷ C
//!                       △    │             △    │             △    ┆
//!                       └────┘             └────┘             └----┘
//!                      (a)                (b)                (c)
//! ```
//! 
//! In this topology, `B` has two strong references: `A` and `C`. Therefore,
//! when the `A -▷ B` link drops, it loses only one strong references allowing
//! the other strong reference to keep the cycle it in memory while the nodes
//! are unreachable. The resulting network is shown in figure (b).
//! 
//! [`Weak`] is provided to fix this issue. Although it is not enforced, the
//! programmer can take benefits out of it. A weak link does not increment the
//! strong reference counter. Making `C -▷ B` weak, which is shown in figure (c),
//! resolves this problem. Since `B`'s strong reference counter is 1, dropping
//! `A -▷ B` makes it zero and `B`'s drop function gets called.
//! 
//! # Example
//! 
//! The following example does not use a weak pointer leading to a memory leak.
//! It creates the following links: `A -> B`, `B -> C`, and `C -> B`. The last
//! two links create a cycle. Therefore, when `A` goes of scope, it cannot drop
//! `B` and `C` because the strong reference count for both of them is non-zero.
//! Nodes `B` and `C` remain in memory forever.
//! 
//! ```
//! use corundum::default::*;
//! type P = Allocator;
//! 
//! struct Node {
//!     val: char,
//!     link: PRefCell<Option<Prc<Node>>>
//! }
//! 
//! impl Node {
//!     fn new(val: char) -> Self {
//!         println!("{} is created", val);
//!         Self { val, link: PRefCell::new(None) }
//!     }
//! }
//! 
//! impl Drop for Node {
//!     fn drop(&mut self) {
//!         println!("{} is dropped", self.val);
//!     }
//! }
//! 
//! let _pool = P::open_no_root("net.pool", O_CF).unwrap();
//! 
//! transaction(|j| {
//!     let A = Prc::new(Node::new('A'), j);
//!     let B = Prc::new(Node::new('B'), j);
//!     let C = Prc::new(Node::new('C'), j);
//!     let mut a_link = A.link.borrow_mut(j);
//!     let mut b_link = B.link.borrow_mut(j);
//!     let mut c_link = C.link.borrow_mut(j);
//!     *a_link = Some(B.pclone(j));
//!     *b_link = Some(C.pclone(j));
//!     *c_link = Some(B.pclone(j));
//! }).unwrap();
//! ```
//! 
//! The output of the example above is as follows (`B` and `C` do not drop the
//! allocation):
//! 
//! ```text
//! A is created
//! B is created
//! C is created
//! A is dropped
//! ```
//! 
//! To prevent the memory leak, we can use a weak link. The following example
//! shows how to manually prevent cycles. The `C -> B` link is weak, so the
//! strong reference counter becomes zero when `A -> B` is eliminated.
//! 
//! ```
//! use corundum::default::*;
//! type P = Allocator;
//! 
//! enum Link<T: PSafe> {
//!     Strong(Prc<T>),
//!     Weak(prc::PWeak<T>),
//!     Null
//! }
//! 
//! struct Node {
//!     val: char,
//!     link: PRefCell<Link<Node>>
//! }
//! 
//! impl Node {
//!     fn new(val: char) -> Self {
//!         println!("{} is created", val);
//!         Self { val, link: PRefCell::new(Null) }
//!     }
//! }
//! 
//! impl Drop for Node {
//!     fn drop(&mut self) {
//!         println!("{} is dropped", self.val);
//!     }
//! }
//! # use Link::*;
//! 
//! let _pool = P::open_no_root("net.pool", O_CF).unwrap();
//! 
//! transaction(|j| {
//!     let A = Prc::new(Node::new('A'), j);
//!     let B = Prc::new(Node::new('B'), j);
//!     let C = Prc::new(Node::new('C'), j);
//!     let mut a_link = A.link.borrow_mut(j);
//!     let mut b_link = B.link.borrow_mut(j);
//!     let mut c_link = C.link.borrow_mut(j);
//!     *a_link = Strong(B.pclone(j));
//!     *b_link = Strong(C.pclone(j));
//!     *c_link = Weak(Prc::downgrade(&B, j));
//! }).unwrap();
//! ```
//! 
//! The output shows that no `Node` remains in memory.
//! 
//! ```text
//! A is created
//! B is created
//! C is created
//! A is dropped
//! B is dropped
//! C is dropped

///

/// References to data can be strong (using [`pclone`]), weak (using [`downgrade`]),
