/// A thread-local init-once-per-thread cell for thread-local values.
///
/// A `LocalInitCell` instance allows global access to a `n` per-thread values,
/// all of which are initialized in the same manner when the value is first
/// retrieved from a thread.
//
/// The initialization function for values in `LocalInitCell` is specified via
/// the [set](#method.set) method. The initialization function must be set
/// before a value is attempted to be retrieved via the [get](#method.get)
/// method. The [try_get](#method.try_get) can be used to determine whether the
/// `LocalInitCell` has been initialized before attempting to retrieve a value.
///
/// For safety reasons, values stored in `LocalInitCell` must be `Send +
/// 'static`.
///
/// # Comparison with `InitCell`
///
/// When the use-case allows, there are two primary advantages to using a
/// `LocalInitCell` instance over a `InitCell` instance:
///
///   * Values stored in `LocalInitCell` do not need to implement `Sync`.
///   * There is no synchronization overhead when setting a value.
///
/// The primary disadvantages are:
///
///   * Values are recomputed once per thread on `get()` where `InitCell` never
///     recomputes values.
///   * Values need to be `'static` where `InitCell` imposes no such restriction.
///
/// Values `LocalInitCell` are _not_ the same across different threads. Any
/// modifications made to the stored value in one thread are _not_ visible in
/// another. Furthermore, because Rust reuses thread IDs, a new thread is _not_
/// guaranteed to receive a newly initialized value on its first call to `get`.
///
/// # Usage
///
/// **This type is only available when the `"tls"` feature is enabled.** To
/// enable the feature, include the `state` dependency in your `Cargo.toml` as
/// follows:
///
/// ```toml
/// [dependencies]
/// state = { version = "0.6.0", features = ["tls"] }
/// ```
///
/// # Example
///
/// The following example uses `LocalInitCell` to store a per-thread count:
///
/// ```rust
/// # extern crate state;
/// # use std::cell::Cell;
/// # use std::thread;
/// # use state::LocalInitCell;
/// static COUNT: LocalInitCell<Cell<usize>> = LocalInitCell::new();
///
/// fn check_count() {
///     let count = COUNT.get();
///
///     // initialize the state, in case we reuse thread IDs
///     count.set(0);
///
///     // increment it, non-atomically
///     count.set(count.get() + 1);
///
///     // The count should always be 1 since the state is thread-local.
///     assert_eq!(count.get(), 1);
/// }
///
/// fn main() {
///     // setup the initializer for thread-local state
///     COUNT.set(|| Cell::new(0));
///
///     // spin up many threads that call `check_count`.
///     let mut threads = vec![];
///     for i in 0..10 {
///         threads.push(thread::spawn(|| check_count()));
///     }
///
///     // Wait for all of the thread to finish.
///     for thread in threads {
///         thread.join().expect("correct count");
///     }
/// }
/// ```
