// A ref-counted wrapper around a GenericChangeProcessor for use with datatypes
// that don't live on the UI thread.
//
// We need to make it refcounted as the ownership transfer from the
// DataTypeController is dependent on threading, and hence racy. The
// SharedChangeProcessor should be created on the UI thread, but should only be
// connected and used on the same thread as the datatype it interacts with.
//
// The only thread-safe method is Disconnect, which will disconnect from the
// generic change processor, letting us shut down the syncer/datatype without
// waiting for non-UI threads.
//
// Note: since we control the work being done while holding the lock, we ensure
// no I/O or other intensive work is done while blocking the UI thread (all
// the work is in-memory sync interactions).
//
// We use virtual methods so that we can use mock's in testing.
