/** \class SkRefCnt

    SkRefCnt is the base class for objects that may be shared by multiple
    objects. When a new owner wants a reference, it calls ref(). When an owner
    wants to release its reference, it calls unref(). When the shared object's
    reference count goes to zero as the result of an unref() call, its (virtual)
    destructor is called. It is an error for the destructor to be called
    explicitly (or via the object going out of scope on the stack or calling
    delete) if getRefCnt() > 1.
