     @brief implements the Deleter concept of shared_ptr without deleting anything
     @relates shared_ptr

     If you allocate an object on the stack, but want to pass it to a class or function as a shared_ptr,
     you can use this deleter to avoid accidental deletion of the stack-allocated object.

     For convenience we provide two free functions to create a shared_ptr from a stack-allocated object
     (\see stackobject_to_shared_ptr):

     1) Convert a stack-allocated object to a shared_ptr:
     @code
          int i = 10;
          std::shared_ptr<int> pi = stackobject_to_shared_ptr(i);
     @endcode
     2) Convert a stack-allocated object to a std::shared_ptr of a base class
     @code
          class A {};
          class B : public A {};

          ...

          B b;
          std::shared_ptr<A> pa = stackobject_to_shared_ptr<A>(b);
     @endcode

     @tparam T type of the stack-allocated object
   */
  template<class T>
  struct null_deleter
  {
    void operator() (T*) const {}
  };

  /**
     @brief Create a shared_ptr for a stack-allocated object
     @relatesalso null_deleter
     @code
          #include <dune/common/shared_ptr.hh>
     @endcode

     Usage:
     @code
          int i = 10;
          std::shared_ptr<int> pi = stackobject_to_shared_ptr(i);
     @endcode
     The @c std::shared_ptr points to the object on the stack, but its deleter is
     set to an instance of @c null_deleter so that nothing happens when the @c
     shared_ptr is destroyed.

   * to capture references and temporaries in a unique
   * way without creating copies and only moving if
   * necessary.
   *
   * Be careful: Only use this function if you are
