/// This is useful to add to your own traits, when you want to expose `Any`
/// upcasting (and downcasting!) ability to your users, on your object-safe
/// traits.
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ```rust
/// use ::anycast::Anycast;
///
/// trait Foo: Anycast {
///     fn foo(&mut self);
/// }
///
/// impl Foo for i32 {
///     fn foo(&mut self) {
///         *self += 1;
///     }
/// }
///
/// let mut x = 10;
/// let x: &mut dyn Foo = &mut x;
/// x.foo();
/// // it's recommended to use Anycast::* due to weird implicit (de)ref.
/// assert_eq!(Anycast::any_ref(x).downcast_ref::<i32>().unwrap(), &11);
/// ```
