///
/// Handle that contains a hgi object and unique id.
///
/// The unique id is used to compare two handles to guard against pointer
/// aliasing, where the same memory address is used to create a similar object,
/// but it is not actually the same object.
///
/// Handle is not a shared or weak_ptr and destruction of the contained object
/// should be explicitely managed by the client via the HgiDestroy*** functions.
///
/// If shared/weak ptr functionality is desired, the client creating Hgi objects
/// can wrap the returned handle in a shared_ptr.
