// RefPtr - Smart pointer for (intrusive) reference counting.
// Simply, an object's reference count is the number of RefPtrs refering to it.
// The RefPtr will delete the referenced object when the count reaches zero.
/*TODO: this might be improved a little by having RefPtr wrap the object being
pointed to so the user of RefPtr does not need to add ReferenceCount explicitly.
One can use RefPtr on any arbitrary object from that moment on.
