/** The List class implements an intrusive linked list. We say it is intrusive
    because the element class must derive from Linkable, which provides the
    link fields used by this implementation. An intrusive implementation has
    two main benefits: it is more efficient and uses less memory. Recall that
    a non-intrusive linked list must allocate an additional "node" object that
    contains the links fields as well as a pointer to the element. This implies
    that removal is O(N) since an element must be located before it can be
    removed. Also, the extra memory object compromises space and efficiency.

    The List template takes two arguments: the element type and the lock type.
    Again, the element type must derive from Linkable. The lock type is used
    to synchronize access to the list operations and can be any class that
    implements these methods: lock(), try_lock(), unlock(). Here are three
    classes that can be used as the lock type.

        - NullLock - no locking at all.
        - Mutex - non-recursive mutex.
        - Mutex - recursive mutex.

    Now we consider an example. So you want to create a list of Person
    elements. First you must derive from the Linkable class as shown below.

        \code
        class Person : public Linkable
        {
            Person(const String& name);
            .
            .
            .
        }
        \endcode

    Linkable is a non-virtual base class and contains the link fields this
    implementation will use to place Person elements onto the list. Second,
    you must instantiate the List template. Here are three possibilities.

        \code
        List<Person, NullLink>; // Do no synchronization.
        List<Person, Mutex>; // Use Mutex class to synchronize.
        List<Person, Mutex>; // Use Mutex class to synchronize.
        \endcode

    Finally, use the list. The following example adds three Person objects
    to the back of the list and removes one from the front.

        \code
        typedef List<Person, Mutex> PersonList;
        PersonList list;

        list.insert_back(new Person("John"));
        list.insert_back(new Person("Mary"));
        list.insert_back(new Person("Jane"));

        Person* person = list.remove_front();
        \endcode

    One recurring usage pattern is exhausting the elements of a list. For
    example (this is thread-safe).

        \code
        Person* person;

        while ((person = list.remove_front())
        {
            // Do something with person here.
        }
        \endcode

    Another pattern is to iterate the elements of the list, which requires a
    lock for the duration of the iteration. For example:

        \code
        list.lock();

        for (Person* p = list.front(); p; p = list.next_of(p))
        {
            // Use p here!
        }

        list.unlock();
        \endcode

    Beware that this pattern fails for non-recursive mutexes since the mutex
    is locked once by our example and again by front(). You may have noticed
    that if an exception is thrown before unlock(), that the mutex will
    remain locked. For this reason, the List class contains an AutoLock class
    that will automatically release the mutex. We now rework the previous
    example to use an AutoLock object.

        \code
        {
            PersonList::AutoLock autoLock(list);

            for (Person* p = list.front(); p; p = list.next_of(p))
            {
                // Use p here!
            }
        }
        \endcode

    The List class provides a special find function to simplify recurring
    lookups of an element by some specific criteria. For example, lets add an
    equal function to our Person class as follows:

        \code
        class Person : public Linkable
        {
            Person(const String& name);
            const String& name();

            static bool equal(const Person* person, const char* client_data)
            {
                const String& name = *((const String*)client_data);
                return person->name() == name;
            }
        }
        \endcode

    This equal function may now be passed to the find() function to lookup
    a specific person in a thread-safe way. For example:

        \code
        const String name = "John";
        Person* person = list.find(Person::equal, &name);

        if (person)
        {
            // Found John!
        }
        \endcode

    Similary, we can delete "John" by using the equal-form of remove().

        \code
        const String name = "John";
        Person* person = list.remove(Person::equal, &name);
        \endcode

    Finally, we can "apply" a function to every element of the list using
    the apply method. For example:

        \code
        static void _print(Person* person, const void* client_data)
        {
            printf("%s\n", (const char*)client_data);
            person->print();
        }

        list.apply(_print, "My List");
        \endcode
