 * It should only be used for user-managed objects, i.e. those created with
 * the @c new operator or @c create* functions, like:
 * `irr_ptr<scene::IMeshBuffer> buf{new scene::SMeshBuffer()};`
 * The reference counting is *not* balanced as new objects have reference
 * count set to one, and the @c irr_ptr constructor (and @c reset) assumes
 * ownership of that reference.
 *
 * It shouldn’t be used for engine-managed objects, including those created
 * with @c addTexture and similar methods. Constructing @c irr_ptr directly
 * from such object is a bug and may lead to a crash. Indirect construction
 * is possible though; see the @c grab free function for details and use cases.
