`wobbly` provides the single-threaded `rc::Wobbly` and thread-safe `sync::Wobbly` reference-counting pointers that are similar to `Weak` but provide wobbly-shared ownership of a value of type T, allocated on the heap. Unlike `Weak` pointers, a group of `Wobbly` pointers shares one owning (strong) pointer that is released when the first `Wobbly` of the group is dropped, and `Wobbly` pointers can thus keep a value alive like `std::rc::Rc` or `std::sync::Arc` but can also break cycles by being a non-owning pointer like `std::rc::Weak` or `std::sync::Weak`.
