* already_AddRefed cooperates with reference counting smart pointers to enable
* you to assign in a pointer _without_ |AddRef|ing it. You might want to use
* this as a return type from a function that returns an already |AddRef|ed
* pointer.
*
* TODO Move already_AddRefed to namespace mozilla. This has not yet been done
* because of the sheer number of usages of already_AddRefed.
*
* When should you use already_AddRefed<>?
* * Ensure a consumer takes ownership of a reference
* * Pass ownership without calling AddRef/Release (sometimes required in
* off-main-thread code)
* * The ref pointer type you're using doesn't support move construction
*
* Otherwise, use std::move(RefPtr/nsCOMPtr/etc).

// WARNING: sketchiness ahead.
//
// The x86-64 ABI for Unix-like operating systems requires structures to be
// returned via invisible reference if they are non-trivial for the purposes
// of calls according to the C++ ABI[1]. For our consideration here, that
// means that if we have a non-trivial move constructor or destructor,
// already_AddRefed must be returned by invisible reference. But
// already_AddRefed is small enough and so commonly used that it would be
// beneficial to return it via registers instead. So we need to figure out
// a way to make the move constructor and the destructor trivial.
//
// Our destructor is normally non-trivial, because it asserts that the
// stored pointer has been taken by somebody else prior to destruction.
// However, since the assert in question is compiled only for DEBUG builds,
// we can make the destructor trivial in non-DEBUG builds by simply defining
// it with `= default`.
//
// We now have to make the move constructor trivial as well. It is normally
// non-trivial, because the incoming object has its pointer null-ed during
// the move. This null-ing is done to satisfy the assert in the destructor.
// But since that destructor has no assert in non-DEBUG builds, the clearing
// is unnecessary in such builds; all we really need to perform is a copy of
// the pointer from the incoming object. So we can let the compiler define
// a trivial move constructor for us, and already_AddRefed can now be
// returned in registers rather than needing to allocate a stack slot for
// an invisible reference.
//
// The above considerations apply to Unix-like operating systems only; the
// conditions for the same optimization to apply on x86-64 Windows are much
// more strigent and are basically impossible for already_AddRefed to
// satisfy[2]. But we do get some benefit from this optimization on Windows
// because we removed the nulling of the pointer during the move, so that's
// a codesize win.
