//
// This file defines a class that can be used to provide very simple memory leak
// checks for an API.  Basically LLVM uses this to make sure that Instructions,
// for example, are deleted when they are supposed to be, and not leaked away.
//
// When compiling with NDEBUG (Release build), this class does nothing, thus
// adding no checking overhead to release builds.  Note that this class is
// implemented in a very simple way, requiring completely manual manipulation
// and checking for garbage, but this is intentional: users should not be using
// this API, only other APIs should.
