2021-06-29Documentation: Document changes to creating smart pointersDaniel Bertalan
Because of the added complexity of *non-throwing* `new`, helper methods for correctly constructing smart pointers were added in a previous commit. This commit changes the documentation to recommend using these, and adds examples to aid in correctly determining when to use non-throwing new when manually creating smart pointers.
