//! Problem:
//!
//! ```
//! pub struct Foo {
//!     ...
//! }
//!
//! impl Foo {
//!     fn do_something(&mut self, ...){
//!         //FIXME: avoid allocation. can't fix this because T is lifetime-bound.
//!         let mut guards: Vec<Guard<'x>> = Vec::with_capacity(xxx.len());
//!         ...
//!     }
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! Solution:
//!
//! ```
//! use tmp_vec::TmpVec;
//!
//! pub struct Foo {
//!     tmp_guards: TmpVec<Guard<'static>>,
//!     ...
//! }
//!
//! impl Foo {
//!     fn do_something(&mut self, ...){
//!          let mut guards = self.tmp_guards.borrow_mut();
//!          ...
//!     }
//! }
//!         
//! ```
