/// Matches a (smart) pointer pointing to a value matched by the [`Matcher`]
/// `expected`.
///
/// This allows easily matching smart pointers such as `Box`, `Rc`, and `Arc`
/// as well as slices.
///
/// For example:
///
/// ```
/// # use test_that::prelude::*;
/// # use std::rc::Rc;
/// # fn should_pass() -> TestResult<()> {
/// verify_that!(Box::new(123), points_to(eq(123)))?;
/// verify_that!(Rc::new(123), points_to(eq(123)))?;
/// verify_that!(&[123], points_to(contains(eq(123))))?;
/// #     Ok(())
/// # }
/// # should_pass().unwrap();
/// ```
