/* Poor's man std::unique_ptr
 *
 * OwnPtr is a container for a pointer declaring ownership.
 *
 * The goal is to allow to own object, pass it around and automatically delete
 * the pointer when the container goes out of scope.
 *
 * In order to pass it around the move constructor or move assignment operator
 * must be used. operator*, operator-> and the get() method can be used to get
 * the pointer contained in the OwnPtr container.
 *
 * The OwnPtr name comes from similar class in WebKit, before they switched to
 * std::unique_ptr. The implementation is different/simpler. We need our own
 * implementation since the <memory> header (and thus std::unique_ptr) is not
 * compatible with the PX4 toolchain and/or nuttx headers.
