/// correctly if the range is limited to `[0..2]`. The one additional state is useful for users to
/// determine whether a certain memory chunk can be deallocated or not by using values returned
/// from [`Guard::epoch`](crate::Guard::epoch), e.g., if an [`Owned`](crate::Owned) was retired in
/// epoch `1`, then the [`Owned`](crate::Owned) will become completely unreachable in epoch `0`.
