/** @brief Template class for smart pointers with shared ownership

A Ptr\<T\> pretends to be a pointer to an object of type T. Unlike an ordinary pointer, however, the
object will be automatically cleaned up once all Ptr instances pointing to it are destroyed.

Ptr is similar to boost::shared_ptr that is part of the Boost library
(<http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/release/libs/smart_ptr/shared_ptr.htm>) and std::shared_ptr from
the [C++11](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C++11) standard.

This class provides the following advantages:
-   Default constructor, copy constructor, and assignment operator for an arbitrary C++ class or C
    structure. For some objects, like files, windows, mutexes, sockets, and others, a copy
    constructor or an assignment operator are difficult to define. For some other objects, like
    complex classifiers in OpenCV, copy constructors are absent and not easy to implement. Finally,
    some of complex OpenCV and your own data structures may be written in C. However, copy
    constructors and default constructors can simplify programming a lot. Besides, they are often
    required (for example, by STL containers). By using a Ptr to such an object instead of the
    object itself, you automatically get all of the necessary constructors and the assignment
    operator.
-   *O(1)* complexity of the above-mentioned operations. While some structures, like std::vector,
    provide a copy constructor and an assignment operator, the operations may take a considerable
    amount of time if the data structures are large. But if the structures are put into a Ptr, the
    overhead is small and independent of the data size.
-   Automatic and customizable cleanup, even for C structures. See the example below with FILE\*.
-   Heterogeneous collections of objects. The standard STL and most other C++ and OpenCV containers
    can store only objects of the same type and the same size. The classical solution to store
    objects of different types in the same container is to store pointers to the base class (Base\*)
    instead but then you lose the automatic memory management. Again, by using Ptr\<Base\> instead
    of raw pointers, you can solve the problem.

A Ptr is said to *own* a pointer - that is, for each Ptr there is a pointer that will be deleted
once all Ptr instances that own it are destroyed. The owned pointer may be null, in which case
nothing is deleted. Each Ptr also *stores* a pointer. The stored pointer is the pointer the Ptr
pretends to be; that is, the one you get when you use Ptr::get or the conversion to T\*. It's
usually the same as the owned pointer, but if you use casts or the general shared-ownership
constructor, the two may diverge: the Ptr will still own the original pointer, but will itself point
to something else.

The owned pointer is treated as a black box. The only thing Ptr needs to know about it is how to
delete it. This knowledge is encapsulated in the *deleter* - an auxiliary object that is associated
with the owned pointer and shared between all Ptr instances that own it. The default deleter is an
instance of DefaultDeleter, which uses the standard C++ delete operator; as such it will work with
any pointer allocated with the standard new operator.

However, if the pointer must be deleted in a different way, you must specify a custom deleter upon
Ptr construction. A deleter is simply a callable object that accepts the pointer as its sole
argument. For example, if you want to wrap FILE, you may do so as follows:
@code
    Ptr<FILE> f(fopen("myfile.txt", "w"), fclose);
    if(!f) throw ...;
    fprintf(f, ....);
    ...
    // the file will be closed automatically by f's destructor.
@endcode
Alternatively, if you want all pointers of a particular type to be deleted the same way, you can
specialize DefaultDeleter<T>::operator() for that type, like this:
@code
    namespace cv {
    template<> void DefaultDeleter<FILE>::operator ()(FILE * obj) const
    {
        fclose(obj);
    }
    }
@endcode
For convenience, the following types from the OpenCV C API already have such a specialization that
calls the appropriate release function:
-   CvCapture
-   CvFileStorage
-   CvHaarClassifierCascade
-   CvMat
-   CvMatND
-   CvMemStorage
-   CvSparseMat
-   CvVideoWriter
-   IplImage
@note The shared ownership mechanism is implemented with reference counting. As such, cyclic
ownership (e.g. when object a contains a Ptr to object b, which contains a Ptr to object a) will
lead to all involved objects never being cleaned up. Avoid such situations.
@note It is safe to concurrently read (but not write) a Ptr instance from multiple threads and
therefore it is normally safe to use it in multi-threaded applications. The same is true for Mat and
other C++ OpenCV classes that use internal reference counts.

    and assumes it is the sole owner of it. Don't use them if p is already owned by another Ptr, or
    else p will get deleted twice.
    With the first constructor, DefaultDeleter\<Y\>() becomes the associated deleter (so p will
    eventually be deleted with the standard delete operator). Y must be a complete type at the point
    of invocation.
    With the second constructor, d becomes the associated deleter.

    benign use is to create a non-owning Ptr, like this:
