10/// A "borrowed `Arc`". This is a pointer to
11/// a T that is known to have been allocated within an
12/// `Arc`.
13///
14/// This is equivalent in guarantees to `&Arc<T>`, however it is
15/// a bit more flexible. To obtain an `&Arc<T>` you must have
16/// an `Arc<T>` instance somewhere pinned down until we're done with it.
17/// It's also a direct pointer to `T`, so using this involves less pointer-chasing
18///
19/// However, C++ code may hand us refcounted things as pointers to T directly,
20/// so we have to conjure up a temporary `Arc` on the stack each time. The
21/// same happens for when the object is managed by a `OffsetArc`.
22///
23/// `ArcBorrow` lets us deal with borrows of known-refcounted objects
24/// without needing to worry about where the `Arc<T>` is.
