/** This is sort of a light-weight RCU idea. 
    Suitable for when you frequently consult some "readonly" state, which infrequently
    gets changed. One way of dealing with this is fully locking access to the state, but 
    this is rather wasteful.

    Instead, in the code below, the frequent users of the state get a "readonly" copy of it, 
    which they can consult.  On access, we atomically compare if the local copy is still current 
    with the global one.  If it isn't we do the lock thing, and create a new local copy.

    Meanwhile, to upgrade the global state, methods are offered that do appropriate locking 
    and upgrade the 'generation' counter, signaling to the local copies that they need to be
    refreshed on the next access.

    Two ways to change the global copy are available:
        getCopy(), which delivers a deep copy of the current state, followed by setState()
	modify(), which accepts a (lambda)function that modifies the state

    NOTE: The actual destruction of the 'old' state happens when the last local state 
    relinquishes its access to the state.

    "read-only"
    Sometimes, a 'state' can contain parts that can safely be modified by multiple users, for 
    example, atomic counters. In such cases, it may be useful to explicitly declare such counters
    as mutable.  */
