What is Bark?

Bark<T> is a pointer type for reference-counted data similar to Arc<T> or Rc<T>.

Unlike Arc, Bark only uses atomic operations when crossing threads, or when all Barks on a thread are gone.

This means that Bark is as cheap as an Rc when doing thread-local clones and drops, but once you send one to another thread, it'll start tracking that thread seperately and correctly updates the cross-thread reference count!
