Utilities for reference counting Objective-C objects.

The utilities of the `rc` module provide ARC-like semantics for working with
Objective-C's reference counted objects in Rust.
A `StrongPtr` retains an object and releases the object when dropped.
A `WeakPtr` will not retain the object, but can be upgraded to a `StrongPtr`
and safely fails if the object has been deallocated.

These utilities are not intended to provide a fully safe interface, but can be
useful when writing higher-level Rust wrappers for Objective-C code.

For more information on Objective-C's reference counting, see Apple's documentation:
<https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/MemoryMgmt/Articles/MemoryMgmt.html>

# Example

``` no_run
# #[macro_use] extern crate objc;
# use objc::rc::{autoreleasepool, StrongPtr};
# fn main() {
// StrongPtr will release the object when dropped
let obj = unsafe {
    StrongPtr::new(msg_send![class!(NSObject), new])
};

// Cloning retains the object an additional time
let cloned = obj.clone();
autoreleasepool(|| {
    // Autorelease consumes the StrongPtr, but won't
    // actually release until the end of an autoreleasepool
    cloned.autorelease();
});

// Weak references won't retain the object
let weak = obj.weak();
drop(obj);
assert!(weak.load().is_null());
# }
```
