/**
* RefStruct is an API for creating reference-counted objects
* with minimal overhead. The API is designed for objects,
* not buffers like the AVBuffer API. The main differences
* to the AVBuffer API are as follows:
*
* - It uses void* instead of uint8_t* as its base type due to
* its focus on objects.
* - There are no equivalents of AVBuffer and AVBufferRef.
* E.g. there is no way to get the usable size of the object:
* The user is supposed to know what is at the other end of
* the pointer. It also avoids one level of indirection.
* - Custom allocators are not supported. This allows to simplify
* the implementation and reduce the amount of allocations.
* - It also has the advantage that the user's free callback need
* only free the resources owned by the object, but not the
* object itself.
* - Because referencing (and replacing) an object managed by the
* RefStruct API does not involve allocations, they can not fail
* and therefore need not be checked.
*
* @note Referencing and unreferencing the buffers is thread-safe and thus
* may be done from multiple threads simultaneously without any need for
* additional locking.
