/// A uniquely owned [`Src`].
/// 
/// This represents an [`Src`] that is known to be uniquely owned - that is, have exactly one strong reference.
/// Multiple [weak pointers](WeakSrc) can be created, but attempts to upgrade those to strong references will fail unless the `UniqueSrc` has been converted to a regular shared [`Src`].
/// 
/// Because they are uniquely owned, the contents of a `UniqueSrc` can be freely mutated.
/// This could be used as an initialization step (that is the suggested usage of [`UniqueRc`](std::rc::UniqueRc)),
/// but I find [`UninitSrc`] to be better for initialization, as there is no intermediate step with [dangling](WeakSrc#dangling) weak pointers.
/// 
/// Still, the ability to mutably access the contents of an [`Src`] can be useful, hence this type's inclusion in the crate.
/// (Also, [`Src::into_unique`] and [`Src::make_unique`] are currently this crate's substitutes for [`Rc::get_mut`](std::rc::Rc::get_mut) and [`Rc::make_mut`](std::rc::Rc::make_mut) respectively;
/// since I made that decision, I have since realized that they are not equivalent, and will therefore probably add `get_mut` and `make_mut` methods to [`Src`] at some point.
/// In the mean time, this is the next best thing.)
/// 
/// Note that, while this struct currently has no methods to explicitly support non-[root](crate#root) `UniqueSrc`s,
/// it is technically possible to construct them by making a non-[root](crate#root) [`Src`] and turning into a `UniqueSrc` via [`Src::into_unique`] or [`Src::make_unique`];
/// The behavior of these non-[root](crate#root) `UniqueSrc`s has not been thoroughly considered and may be changed or removed.
/// 
/// Many of the inherent methods of `UniqueSrc` are associated functions, which means that you have to call them as e.g.,
/// [`UniqueSrc::downgrade(&value)`](UniqueSrc::downgrade) instead of `value.downgrade()`;
/// this avoids conflicts with methods of the inner type `T`.
/// However, some methods, e.g. [`Src::len`], intentionally shadow a known method of the inner type because they use a more efficient computation for the same result,
/// and there may be some in the future (e.g. the hypothetical `UniqueSrc::slice`), which will be permitted to remain as methods because their inner type will be known not to have a conflicting method.
