Provides an API to reuse a Vec's allocation.

This is useful to achieve zero-alloc when storing data with short lifetimes in a Vec: ```rust let mut objects_storage: VecStorageForReuse> = VecStorageForReuse::new();

while let Some(byte_chunk) = stream.next() { // byte_chunk only lives this scope
    let mut objects: &mut Vec<Object<'_>> = &mut *objects_storage.reuse_allocation();

    // Zero-copy parsing; Object has references to chunk
    deserialize(byte_chunk, &mut objects)?;
    process(&objects)?;
} // byte_chunk lifetime ends

```

This crate delegates the actual unsafe functionality to the recycle_vec crate, and just provides an interface that abstracts the swapping with the container through Drop, so that one can never forget to swap back the temporary object with the storage
