/**
 * UniquePtr is a smart pointer that wholly owns a resource.  Ownership may be
 * transferred out of a UniquePtr through explicit action, but otherwise the
 * resource is destroyed when the UniquePtr is destroyed.
 *
 * UniquePtr is similar to C++98's std::auto_ptr, but it improves upon auto_ptr
 * in one crucial way: it's impossible to copy a UniquePtr.  Copying an auto_ptr
 * obviously *can't* copy ownership of its singly-owned resource.  So what
 * happens if you try to copy one?  Bizarrely, ownership is implicitly
 * *transferred*, preserving single ownership but breaking code that assumes a
 * copy of an object is identical to the original.  (This is why auto_ptr is
 * prohibited in STL containers.)
 *
 * UniquePtr solves this problem by being *movable* rather than copyable.
 * Instead of passing a |UniquePtr u| directly to the constructor or assignment
 * operator, you pass |Move(u)|.  In doing so you indicate that you're *moving*
 * ownership out of |u|, into the target of the construction/assignment.  After
 * the transfer completes, |u| contains |nullptr| and may be safely destroyed.
 * This preserves single ownership but also allows UniquePtr to be moved by
 * algorithms that have been made move-safe.  (Note: if |u| is instead a
 * temporary expression, don't use |Move()|: just pass the expression, because
 * it's already move-ready.  For more information see Move.h.)
 *
 * UniquePtr is also better than std::auto_ptr in that the deletion operation is
 * customizable.  An optional second template parameter specifies a class that
 * (through its operator()(T*)) implements the desired deletion policy.  If no
 * policy is specified, mozilla::DefaultDelete<T> is used -- which will either
 * |delete| or |delete[]| the resource, depending whether the resource is an
 * array.  Custom deletion policies ideally should be empty classes (no member
 * fields, no member fields in base classes, no virtual methods/inheritance),
 * because then UniquePtr can be just as efficient as a raw pointer.
 *
 * Use of UniquePtr proceeds like so:
 *
 *   UniquePtr<int> g1; // initializes to nullptr
 *   g1.reset(new int); // switch resources using reset()
 *   g1 = nullptr; // clears g1, deletes the int
 *
 *   UniquePtr<int> g2(new int); // owns that int
 *   int* p = g2.release(); // g2 leaks its int -- still requires deletion
 *   delete p; // now freed
 *
 *   struct S { int x; S(int x) : x(x) {} };
 *   UniquePtr<S> g3, g4(new S(5));
 *   g3 = Move(g4); // g3 owns the S, g4 cleared
 *   S* p = g3.get(); // g3 still owns |p|
 *   assert(g3->x == 5); // operator-> works (if .get() != nullptr)
 *   assert((*g3).x == 5); // also operator* (again, if not cleared)
 *   Swap(g3, g4); // g4 now owns the S, g3 cleared
 *   g3.swap(g4);  // g3 now owns the S, g4 cleared
 *   UniquePtr<S> g5(Move(g3)); // g5 owns the S, g3 cleared
 *   g5.reset(); // deletes the S, g5 cleared
 *
 *   struct FreePolicy { void operator()(void* p) { free(p); } };
 *   UniquePtr<int, FreePolicy> g6(static_cast<int*>(malloc(sizeof(int))));
 *   int* ptr = g6.get();
 *   g6 = nullptr; // calls free(ptr)
 *
 * Now, carefully note a few things you *can't* do:
 *
 *   UniquePtr<int> b1;
 *   b1 = new int; // BAD: can only assign another UniquePtr
 *   int* ptr = b1; // BAD: no auto-conversion to pointer, use get()
 *
 *   UniquePtr<int> b2(b1); // BAD: can't copy a UniquePtr
 *   UniquePtr<int> b3 = b1; // BAD: can't copy-assign a UniquePtr
 *
 * (Note that changing a UniquePtr to store a direct |new| expression is
 * permitted, but usually you should use MakeUnique, defined at the end of this
 * header.)
 *
 * A few miscellaneous notes:
 *
 * UniquePtr, when not instantiated for an array type, can be move-constructed
 * and move-assigned, not only from itself but from "derived" UniquePtr<U, E>
 * instantiations where U converts to T and E converts to D.  If you want to use
 * this, you're going to have to specify a deletion policy for both UniquePtr
 * instantations, and T pretty much has to have a virtual destructor.  In other
 * words, this doesn't work:
 *
 *   struct Base { virtual ~Base() {} };
 *   struct Derived : Base {};
 *
 *   UniquePtr<Base> b1;
 *   // BAD: DefaultDelete<Base> and DefaultDelete<Derived> don't interconvert
 *   UniquePtr<Derived> d1(Move(b));
 *
 *   UniquePtr<Base> b2;
 *   UniquePtr<Derived, DefaultDelete<Base>> d2(Move(b2)); // okay
 *
 * UniquePtr is specialized for array types.  Specializing with an array type
 * creates a smart-pointer version of that array -- not a pointer to such an
 * array.
 *
 *   UniquePtr<int[]> arr(new int[5]);
 *   arr[0] = 4;
 *
 * What else is different?  Deletion of course uses |delete[]|.  An operator[]
 * is provided.  Functionality that doesn't make sense for arrays is removed.
 * The constructors and mutating methods only accept array pointers (not T*, U*
 * that converts to T*, or UniquePtr<U[]> or UniquePtr<U>) or |nullptr|.
 *
 * It's perfectly okay to return a UniquePtr from a method to assure the related
 * resource is properly deleted.  You'll need to use |Move()| when returning a
 * local UniquePtr.  Otherwise you can return |nullptr|, or you can return
 * |UniquePtr(ptr)|.
 *
 * UniquePtr will commonly be a member of a class, with lifetime equivalent to
 * that of that class.  If you want to expose the related resource, you could
 * expose a raw pointer via |get()|, but ownership of a raw pointer is
 * inherently unclear.  So it's better to expose a |const UniquePtr&| instead.
 * This prohibits mutation but still allows use of |get()| when needed (but
 * operator-> is preferred).  Of course, you can only use this smart pointer as
 * long as the enclosing class instance remains live -- no different than if you
 * exposed the |get()| raw pointer.
 *
 * To pass a UniquePtr-managed resource as a pointer, use a |const UniquePtr&|
 * argument.  To specify an inout parameter (where the method may or may not
 * take ownership of the resource, or reset it), or to specify an out parameter
 * (where simply returning a |UniquePtr| isn't possible), use a |UniquePtr&|
 * argument.  To unconditionally transfer ownership of a UniquePtr
 * into a method, use a |UniquePtr| argument.  To conditionally transfer
 * ownership of a resource into a method, should the method want it, use a
 * |UniquePtr&&| argument.

/**
 * MakeUnique is a helper function for allocating new'd objects and arrays,
 * returning a UniquePtr containing the resulting pointer.  The semantics of
 * MakeUnique<Type>(...) are as follows.
 *
 *   If Type is an array T[n]:
 *     Disallowed, deleted, no overload for you!
 *   If Type is an array T[]:
 *     MakeUnique<T[]>(size_t) is the only valid overload.  The pointer returned
 *     is as if by |new T[n]()|, which value-initializes each element.  (If T
 *     isn't a class type, this will zero each element.  If T is a class type,
 *     then roughly speaking, each element will be constructed using its default
 *     constructor.  See C++11 [dcl.init]p7 for the full gory details.)
 *   If Type is non-array T:
 *     The arguments passed to MakeUnique<T>(...) are forwarded into a
 *     |new T(...)| call, initializing the T as would happen if executing
 *     |T(...)|.
 *
 * There are various benefits to using MakeUnique instead of |new| expressions.
 *
 * First, MakeUnique eliminates use of |new| from code entirely.  If objects are
 * only created through UniquePtr, then (assuming all explicit release() calls
 * are safe, including transitively, and no type-safety casting funniness)
 * correctly maintained ownership of the UniquePtr guarantees no leaks are
 * possible.  (This pays off best if a class is only ever created through a
 * factory method on the class, using a private constructor.)
 *
 * Second, initializing a UniquePtr using a |new| expression requires repeating
 * the name of the new'd type, whereas MakeUnique in concert with the |auto|
 * keyword names it only once:
 *
 *   UniquePtr<char> ptr1(new char()); // repetitive
 *   auto ptr2 = MakeUnique<char>();   // shorter
 *
 * Of course this assumes the reader understands the operation MakeUnique
 * performs.  In the long run this is probably a reasonable assumption.  In the
 * short run you'll have to use your judgment about what readers can be expected
 * to know, or to quickly look up.
 *
 * Third, a call to MakeUnique can be assigned directly to a UniquePtr.  In
 * contrast you can't assign a pointer into a UniquePtr without using the
 * cumbersome reset().
 *
 *   UniquePtr<char> p;
 *   p = new char;           // ERROR
 *   p.reset(new char);      // works, but fugly
 *   p = MakeUnique<char>(); // preferred
 *
 * (And third, although not relevant to Mozilla: MakeUnique is exception-safe.
 * An exception thrown after |new T| succeeds will leak that memory, unless the
 * pointer is assigned to an object that will manage its ownership.  UniquePtr
 * ably serves this function.)
