`Ref` types with internal mutability that implement `Send` and `Sync`.
These types are shared by [`rt_map`] and [`rt_vec`].
## Usage
Add the following to `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
rt_ref = "0.2.1" # or
rt_ref = { version = "0.2.1", features = ["unsafe_debug"] }
```
In code:
```rust
use rt_ref::{Cell, Ref, RefMut};
let a = 1;
// Insert a value into a collection, wrapped with `Cell`.
let mut v = Vec::new();
v.push(Cell::new(a));
let v = v; // v is now compile-time immutable.
*a += 2;
});
```
### Features
#### `"unsafe_debug"`:
The borrowed reference will use the inner type's `Debug` implementation when formatted.
```rust
use rt_ref::{Cell, Ref, RefMut};
let mut v = Vec::new();
v.push(Cell::new("a"));
#[cfg(not(feature = "unsafe_debug"))]
assert_eq!(
r#"[Cell { flag: 0, inner: UnsafeCell { .. } }]"#,
format!("{v:?}")
);
#[cfg(feature = "unsafe_debug")]
assert_eq!(r#"[Cell { flag: 0, inner: "a" }]"#, format!("{v:?}"));
```
