// create_ref will construct a shared_ptr on the heap and return a pointer
// to it. the returned uintptr_t can then be used with retrieve_instance
// to get back the shared_ptr and object it refers to. This ensures that
// the object outlives the exported function so that Go can use it.

// create_ref in order to use it in functions where the caller passes back the
// uintptr_t so that an object can be managed by C++ while a reference to it
