TSharedImage is a class which specifies the base class for reference-counted shared images. TSharedImage defines properties and methods which are used to track and maintain the reference count for a shared image.
Use the RefCount property to determine the number of references acquired for a shared image.
Use Reference to increment the value in RefCount. Use Release to decrement the value in RefCount.
TSharedImage includes abstract virtual methods, like HandleAllocated and FreeHandle, which must be implemented in a descendent class to perform actions needed for the handle in a specific image type.
TSharedImage is the ancestor for the TSharedRasterImage class.
