 // Weak pointers are pointers to an object that do not affect its lifetime,
 // and which may be invalidated (i.e. reset to NULL) by the object, or its
 // owner, at any time, most commonly when the object is about to be deleted.
 // Weak pointers are useful when an object needs to be accessed safely by one
 // or more objects other than its owner, and those callers can cope with the
 // object vanishing and e.g. tasks posted to it being silently dropped.
 // Reference-counting such an object would complicate the ownership graph and
 // make it harder to reason about the object's lifetime.
 // EXAMPLE:
 //
 //  class Controller {
 //   public:
 //    void SpawnWorker() { Worker::StartNew(weak_factory_.GetWeakPtr()); }
 //    void WorkComplete(const Result& result) { ... }
 //   private:
 //    // Member variables should appear before the WeakPtrFactory, to ensure
 //    // that any WeakPtrs to Controller are invalidated before its members
 //    // variable's destructors are executed, rendering them invalid.
 //    WeakPtrFactory<Controller> weak_factory_;
 //  };
 //
 //  class Worker {
 //   public:
 //    static void StartNew(const WeakPtr<Controller>& controller) {
 //      Worker* worker = new Worker(controller);
 //      // Kick off asynchronous processing...
 //    }
 //   private:
 //    Worker(const WeakPtr<Controller>& controller)
 //        : controller_(controller) {}
 //    void DidCompleteAsynchronousProcessing(const Result& result) {
 //      if (controller_)
 //        controller_->WorkComplete(result);
 //    }
 //    WeakPtr<Controller> controller_;
 //  };
 //
 // With this implementation a caller may use SpawnWorker() to dispatch multiple
 // Workers and subsequently delete the Controller, without waiting for all
 // Workers to have completed.
 // ------------------------- IMPORTANT: Thread-safety -------------------------
 // Weak pointers may be passed safely between threads, but must always be
 // dereferenced and invalidated on the same thread otherwise checking the
 // pointer would be racey.
 //
 // To ensure correct use, the first time a WeakPtr issued by a WeakPtrFactory
 // is dereferenced, the factory and its WeakPtrs become bound to the calling
 // thread, and cannot be dereferenced or invalidated on any other thread. Bound
 // WeakPtrs can still be handed off to other threads, e.g. to use to post tasks
 // back to object on the bound thread.
 //
 // Invalidating the factory's WeakPtrs un-binds it from the thread, allowing it
 // to be passed for a different thread to use or delete it.
