/// A Shared memory buffer mapping.
///
/// Unlike `ipc::Shmem`, the underlying shared memory buffer on each side of
/// the process boundary is only deallocated with there respective
/// `WritableSharedMemoryMapping`.
///
/// ## Usage
///
/// Typical usage goes as follows:
/// - Allocate the memory using `UnsafeSharedMemoryHandle::Create`, returning a
/// handle and a mapping.
/// - Send the handle to the other process using an IPDL message.
/// - On the other process, map the shared memory by creating
/// WritableSharedMemoryMapping via `WritableSharedMemoryMapping::Open` and
/// the received handle.
///
/// Do not send the shared memory handle again, it is only intended to establish
/// the mapping on each side during initialization. The user of this class is
/// responsible for managing the lifetime of the buffers on each side, as well
/// as their identity, by for example storing them in hash map and referring to
/// them via IDs in IPDL message if need be.
///
/// ## Empty shmems
///
/// An empty WritableSharedMemoryMapping is one that was created with size zero.
/// It is analogous to a null RefPtr. It can be used like a non-empty shmem,
/// including sending the handle and openning it on another process (resulting
/// in an empty mapping on the other side).
