/// The instance_list pattern is where every instance of a class registers
/// itself in a static list of all instances and removes itself on dtor.
/// IRCd Ex. All clients use instance_list so all clients can be listed for
/// an administrator or be interrupted and disconnected on server shutdown.
///
/// `struct myobj : ircd::instance_list<myobj> {};`
///
/// * The creator of the class no longer has to manually specify what is
/// defined here using unique_iterator; however, one still must provide
/// linkage for the static list.
///
/// * The container pointer used by unique_iterator is eliminated here
/// because of the static list.
