//! Sometimes it is important to share something and avoid runtime costs.
//! This crate for such purpose
//! # Examples
//! ```
//! extern crate unchecked_mutable;
//!
//! use std::borrow::BorrowMut;
//! use unchecked_mutable::UncheckedMutable;
//!
//! trait Drawable {
//!     fn draw(&mut self);
//! }
//!
//! struct Image;
//!
//! impl Drawable for Image {
//!     fn draw(&mut self) {
//!         println!("Draw image");
//!     }
//! }
//!
//! fn show_example<'a>() {
//!     let data = {
//!         let image: UncheckedMutable<Image> = UncheckedMutable::new(Image);
//!         image.data()
//!     };
//!
//!     let mut drawable: UncheckedMutable<Drawable> = UncheckedMutable::from_rc(data);
//!     let drawable: &mut (Drawable + 'a) = drawable.borrow_mut();
//!     drawable.draw();
//! }
//!
//! fn main() {
//!     show_example();
