//! PyO3's interior mutability primitive.
//!
//! Rust has strict aliasing rules - you can either have any number of immutable (shared) references or one mutable
//! reference. Python's ownership model is the complete opposite of that - any Python object
//! can be referenced any number of times, and mutation is allowed from any reference.
//!
//! PyO3 deals with these differences by employing the [Interior Mutability]
//! pattern. This requires that PyO3 enforces the borrowing rules and it has two mechanisms for
//! doing so:
//! - Statically it can enforce threadsafe access with the [`Python<'py>`](crate::Python) token.
//!   All Rust code holding that token, or anything derived from it, can assume that they have
//!   safe access to the Python interpreter's state. For this reason all the native Python objects
//!   can be mutated through shared references.
//! - However, methods and functions in Rust usually *do* need `&mut` references. While PyO3 can
//!   use the [`Python<'py>`](crate::Python) token to guarantee thread-safe access to them, it cannot
//!   statically guarantee uniqueness of `&mut` references. As such those references have to be tracked
//!   dynamically at runtime, using `PyCell` and the other types defined in this module. This works
//!   similar to std's [`RefCell`](std::cell::RefCell) type.
//!
//! # When *not* to use PyCell
//!
//! Usually you can use `&mut` references as method and function receivers and arguments, and you
//! won't need to use `PyCell` directly:
//!
//! ```rust
//! use pyo3::prelude::*;
//!
//! #[pyclass]
//! struct Number {
//!     inner: u32,
//! }
//!
//! #[pymethods]
//! impl Number {
//!     fn increment(&mut self) {
//!         self.inner += 1;
//!     }
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! The [`#[pymethods]`](crate::pymethods) proc macro will generate this wrapper function (and more),
//! using `PyCell` under the hood:
//!
//! ```rust,ignore
//! # use pyo3::prelude::*;
//! # #[pyclass]
//! # struct Number {
//! #    inner: u32,
//! # }
//! #
//! # #[pymethods]
//! # impl Number {
//! #    fn increment(&mut self) {
//! #        self.inner += 1;
//! #    }
//! # }
//! #
//! // The function which is exported to Python looks roughly like the following
//! unsafe extern "C" fn __pymethod_increment__(
//!     _slf: *mut pyo3::ffi::PyObject,
//!     _args: *mut pyo3::ffi::PyObject,
//! ) -> *mut pyo3::ffi::PyObject {
//!     use :: pyo3 as _pyo3;
//!     _pyo3::impl_::trampoline::noargs(_slf, _args, |py, _slf| {
//! #       #[allow(deprecated)]
//!         let _cell = py
//!             .from_borrowed_ptr::<_pyo3::PyAny>(_slf)
//!             .downcast::<_pyo3::PyCell<Number>>()?;
//!         let mut _ref = _cell.try_borrow_mut()?;
//!         let _slf: &mut Number = &mut *_ref;
//!         _pyo3::impl_::callback::convert(py, Number::increment(_slf))
//!     })
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! # When to use PyCell
//! ## Using pyclasses from Rust
//!
//! However, we *do* need `PyCell` if we want to call its methods from Rust:
//! ```rust
//! # use pyo3::prelude::*;
//! #
//! # #[pyclass]
//! # struct Number {
//! #     inner: u32,
//! # }
//! #
//! # #[pymethods]
//! # impl Number {
//! #     fn increment(&mut self) {
//! #         self.inner += 1;
//! #     }
//! # }
//! # fn main() -> PyResult<()> {
//! Python::with_gil(|py| {
//!     let n = Py::new(py, Number { inner: 0 })?;
//!
//!     // We borrow the guard and then dereference
//!     // it to get a mutable reference to Number
//!     let mut guard: PyRefMut<'_, Number> = n.bind(py).borrow_mut();
//!     let n_mutable: &mut Number = &mut *guard;
//!
//!     n_mutable.increment();
//!
//!     // To avoid panics we must dispose of the
//!     // `PyRefMut` before borrowing again.
//!     drop(guard);
//!
//!     let n_immutable: &Number = &n.bind(py).borrow();
//!     assert_eq!(n_immutable.inner, 1);
//!
//!     Ok(())
//! })
//! # }
//! ```
//! ## Dealing with possibly overlapping mutable references
//!
//! It is also necessary to use `PyCell` if you can receive mutable arguments that may overlap.
//! Suppose the following function that swaps the values of two `Number`s:
//! ```
//! # use pyo3::prelude::*;
//! # #[pyclass]
//! # pub struct Number {
//! #     inner: u32,
//! # }
//! #[pyfunction]
//! fn swap_numbers(a: &mut Number, b: &mut Number) {
//!     std::mem::swap(&mut a.inner, &mut b.inner);
//! }
//! # fn main() {
//! #     Python::with_gil(|py| {
//! #         let n = Py::new(py, Number{inner: 35}).unwrap();
//! #         let n2 = n.clone_ref(py);
//! #         assert!(n.is(&n2));
//! #         let fun = pyo3::wrap_pyfunction!(swap_numbers, py).unwrap();
//! #         fun.call1((n, n2)).expect_err("Managed to create overlapping mutable references. Note: this is undefined behaviour.");
//! #     });
//! # }
//! ```
//! When users pass in the same `Number` as both arguments, one of the mutable borrows will
//! fail and raise a `RuntimeError`:
//! ```text
//! >>> a = Number()
//! >>> swap_numbers(a, a)
//! Traceback (most recent call last):
//!   File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
//!   RuntimeError: Already borrowed
//! ```
//!
//! It is better to write that function like this:
//! ```rust,ignore
//! # #![allow(deprecated)]
//! # use pyo3::prelude::*;
//! # #[pyclass]
//! # pub struct Number {
//! #     inner: u32,
//! # }
//! #[pyfunction]
//! fn swap_numbers(a: &PyCell<Number>, b: &PyCell<Number>) {
//!     // Check that the pointers are unequal
//!     if !a.is(b) {
//!         std::mem::swap(&mut a.borrow_mut().inner, &mut b.borrow_mut().inner);
//!     } else {
//!         // Do nothing - they are the same object, so don't need swapping.
//!     }
//! }
//! # fn main() {
//! #     // With duplicate numbers
//! #     Python::with_gil(|py| {
//! #         let n = Py::new(py, Number{inner: 35}).unwrap();
//! #         let n2 = n.clone_ref(py);
//! #         assert!(n.is(&n2));
//! #         let fun = pyo3::wrap_pyfunction!(swap_numbers, py).unwrap();
//! #         fun.call1((n, n2)).unwrap();
//! #     });
//! #
//! #     // With two different numbers
//! #     Python::with_gil(|py| {
//! #         let n = Py::new(py, Number{inner: 35}).unwrap();
//! #         let n2 = Py::new(py, Number{inner: 42}).unwrap();
//! #         assert!(!n.is(&n2));
//! #         let fun = pyo3::wrap_pyfunction!(swap_numbers, py).unwrap();
//! #         fun.call1((&n, &n2)).unwrap();
//! #         let n: u32 = n.borrow(py).inner;
//! #         let n2: u32 = n2.borrow(py).inner;
//! #         assert_eq!(n, 42);
//! #         assert_eq!(n2, 35);
//! #     });
//! # }
//! ```
