/**
 * LLSingleton implements the getInstance() method part of the Singleton

 *

 * LLSingleton's template parameter, like so:
 *
 *   class Foo: public LLSingleton<Foo>
 *   {
 *       // use this macro at start of every LLSingleton subclass
 *       LLSINGLETON(Foo);
 *   public:
 *       // ...
 *   };
 *
 *   Foo& instance = Foo::instance();
 *
 * LLSingleton recognizes a couple special methods in your derived class.
 *
 * If you override LLSingleton<T>::initSingleton(), your method will be called
 * immediately after the instance is constructed. This is useful for breaking
 * circular dependencies: if you find that your LLSingleton subclass
 * constructor references other LLSingleton subclass instances in a chain
 * leading back to yours, move the instance reference from your constructor to
 * your initSingleton() method.
 *
 * If you override LLSingleton<T>::cleanupSingleton(), your method will
 * implicitly be called by LLSingleton<T>::deleteSingleton() just before the
 * instance is destroyed. We introduce a special cleanupSingleton() method
 * because cleanupSingleton() operations can involve nontrivial realtime, or
 * throw an exception. A destructor should do neither!
 *
 * If your cleanupSingleton() method throws an exception, we log that
 * exception but carry on.
 *
 * If at some point you call LLSingletonBase::deleteAll(), all remaining
 * LLSingleton<T> instances will be destroyed in reverse dependency order. (Or
 * call MySubclass::deleteSingleton() to specifically destroy the canonical
 * MySubclass instance.)
 *
 * That is, consider LLSingleton subclasses C, B and A. A depends on B, which
 * in turn depends on C. These dependencies are expressed as calls to
 * B::instance() or B::getInstance(), and C::instance() or C::getInstance().
 * It shouldn't matter whether these calls appear in A::A() or
 * A::initSingleton(), likewise B::B() or B::initSingleton().
 *
 * We promise that if you later call LLSingletonBase::deleteAll():
 * 1. A::deleteSingleton() will be called before
 * 2. B::deleteSingleton(), which will be called before
 * 3. C::deleteSingleton().
 * Put differently, if your LLSingleton subclass constructor or
 * initSingleton() method explicitly depends on some other LLSingleton
 * subclass, you may continue to rely on that other subclass in your
 * cleanupSingleton() method.

/**
 * LLParamSingleton<T> is like LLSingleton<T>, except in the following ways:

 * * Before initParamSingleton(), calling instance() or getInstance() dies with
 *   LL_ERRS.
 * * initParamSingleton() may be called only once. A second call dies with
 *   LL_ERRS.
 * * However, distinct initParamSingleton() calls can be used to engage
 *   different constructors, as long as only one such call is executed at
 *   runtime.
 * * Unlike LLSingleton, an LLParamSingleton cannot be "revived" by an
 *   instance() or getInstance() call after deleteSingleton().
 *
 * Importantly, though, each LLParamSingleton subclass does participate in the
 * dependency-ordered LLSingletonBase::deleteAll() processing.
