Wrap a raw polymorphic pointer in a shared_ptr to its true type

.PP
The wrapped pointer will not be responsible for ownership of the held pointer so it will not attempt to destroy it; instead the refcount of the wrapped pointer will be tied to a fake 'ownership pointer' that will do nothing when it ultimately goes out of scope\&.

.PP
The main reason for doing this, other than not to destroy the true object with our wrapper pointer, is to avoid meddling with the internal reference count in a polymorphic type that inherits from std::enable_shared_from_this\&.
