/*!
 * \brief An attribute value class
 *
 * An attribute value is an object that contains a piece of data that represents an attribute state
 * at the point of the value acquisition. All major operations with log records, such as filtering and
 * formatting, involve attribute values contained in a single view. Most likely an attribute value is
 * implemented as a simple holder of some typed value. This holder implements the
 * \c attribute_value::implementation interface and acts as a pimpl for the \c attribute_value
 * object. The \c attribute_value class provides type dispatching support in order to allow
 * to extract the value from the holder.
 *
 * Normally, attributes and their values shall be designed in order to exclude as much interference as
 * reasonable. Such approach allows to have more than one attribute value simultaneously, which improves
 * scalability and allows to implement generating attributes.
 *
 * However, there are cases when this approach does not help to achieve the required level of independency
 * of attribute values and attribute itself from each other at a reasonable performance tradeoff.
 * For example, an attribute or its values may use thread-specific data, which is global and shared
 * between all the instances of the attribute/value. Passing such an attribute value to another thread
 * would be a disaster. To solve this the library defines an additional method for attribute values,
 * namely \c detach_from_thread. The \c attribute_value class forwards the call to its pimpl,
 * which is supposed to ensure that it no longer refers to any thread-specific data after the call.
 * The pimpl can create a new holder as a result of this method and return it to the \c attribute_value
 * wrapper, which will keep the returned reference for any further calls.
 * This method is called for all attribute values that are passed to another thread.
