// SafeRef smart pointers are used to represent a non-owning pointer to an
// object, where the pointer is always intended to be valid. These are useful in
// the same cases that a raw pointer `T*` (or a `T&`) would traditionally be
// used, as the owner of the SafeRef knows the lifetime of the pointed-to object
// from other means and will not use the pointer after the pointed-to object is
// destroyed. However, unlike a `T*` or `T&`, a logic bug will manifest as a
// benign crash instead of as a Use-after-Free.
//
// SafeRef pointers can not be null (as expressed by the "Ref" suffix instead of
// "Ptr"). A SafeRef can be wrapped in an absl::optional if it should not always
// point to something valid. (A SafePtr sibling type can be introduced if this
// is problematic, or if consuming moves are needed!)
//
// If code wants to track the lifetime of the object directly through its
// pointer, and dynamically handle the case of the pointer outliving the object
// it points to, then base::WeakPtr should be used instead.
//
// The SafeRef pointer is constructed from a base::WeakPtrFactory's GetSafeRef()
// method. Since it is tied to the base::WeakPtrFactory, it will consider its
// pointee invalid when the base::WeakPtrFactory is invalidated, in the same way
// as base::WeakPtr does, including after a call to InvalidateWeakPtrs().
//
// THREAD SAFETY: SafeRef pointers (like base::WeakPtr) may only be used on the
// sequence (or thread) where the associated base::WeakPtrFactory will be
// invalidated and/or destroyed. They are safe to passively hold or to destroy
// on any thread though.
//
// This class is expected to one day be replaced by a more flexible and safe
// smart pointer abstraction which is not tied to base::WeakPtrFactory, such as
// raw_ptr<T> from the MiraclePtr project (though perhaps a non-nullable raw_ref
// equivalent).
