/// Request guard to retrieve managed state.
///
/// This type can be used as a request guard to retrieve the state Rocket is
/// managing for some type `T`. This allows for the sharing of state across any
/// number of handlers. A value for the given type must previously have been
/// registered to be managed by Rocket via
/// [`Rocket::manage()`]. The type being managed must be
/// thread safe and sendable across thread boundaries. In other words, it must
/// implement [`Send`] + [`Sync`] + `'static`.
///
/// # Example
///
/// Imagine you have some configuration struct of the type `MyConfig` that you'd
/// like to initialize at start-up and later access it in several handlers. The
/// following example does just this:
///
/// ```rust
/// # #![feature(proc_macro_hygiene)]
/// # #[macro_use] extern crate rocket;
/// use rocket::State;
///
/// // In a real application, this would likely be more complex.
/// struct MyConfig {
///     user_val: String
/// }
///
/// #[get("/")]
/// fn index(state: State<MyConfig>) -> String {
///     format!("The config value is: {}", state.user_val)
/// }
///
/// #[get("/raw")]
/// fn raw_config_value<'r>(state: State<'r, MyConfig>) -> &'r str {
///     // use `inner()` to get a lifetime longer than `deref` gives us
///     state.inner().user_val.as_str()
/// }
///
/// fn main() {
///     let config = MyConfig {
///         user_val: "user input".to_string()
///     };
///
/// # if false { // We don't actually want to launch the server in an example.
///     rocket::ignite()
///         .mount("/", routes![index, raw_config_value])
///         .manage(config)
///         .launch();
/// # }
/// }
/// ```
///
/// # Within Request Guards
///
/// Because `State` is itself a request guard, managed state can be retrieved
/// from another request guard's implementation. In the following code example,
/// `Item` retrieves the `MyConfig` managed state in its [`FromRequest`]
/// implementation using the [`Request::guard()`] method.
///
/// ```rust
/// use rocket::State;
/// use rocket::request::{self, Request, FromRequest};
///
/// # struct MyConfig{ user_val: String };
/// struct Item(String);
///
/// impl FromRequest<'_, '_> for Item {
///     type Error = ();
///
///     fn from_request(request: &Request<'_>) -> request::Outcome<Item, ()> {
///         request.guard::<State<MyConfig>>()
///             .map(|my_config| Item(my_config.user_val.clone()))
///     }
/// }
/// ```
///
/// # Testing with `State`
///
/// When unit testing your application, you may find it necessary to manually
/// construct a type of `State` to pass to your functions. To do so, use the
/// [`State::from()`] static method:
///
/// ```rust
/// # #![feature(proc_macro_hygiene)]
/// # #[macro_use] extern crate rocket;
/// use rocket::State;
///
/// struct MyManagedState(usize);
///
/// #[get("/")]
/// fn handler(state: State<MyManagedState>) -> String {
///     state.0.to_string()
/// }
///
/// let rocket = rocket::ignite().manage(MyManagedState(127));
/// let state = State::from(&rocket).expect("managing `MyManagedState`");
/// assert_eq!(handler(state), "127");
/// ```
