alloc::rc::Rc
and alloc::sync::Arc
alternatives that allow the
smart pointer to refer to just a portion of a reference-counted allocation.
This allows storing a pointer that comes from a reference-counted allocation without having to know the type of the allocation it came from. For example, if you've allocated storage for an entire struct then you can derive a pointer to just one of its fields while still keeping the entire allocation live.
