This can be used when you primarily want to return a reference but in order for
that reference to live long enough it must be returned with an object.
i.e. given `Mutex<Foo { bar }>` you want a function to lock the mutex and return
a reference to `bar` but you can't return that reference since it has a lifetime
dependency on `MutexGuard` (which only derefs to all of `Foo` and not just
`bar`). You can return a `Projection` owning the `MutexGuard<Foo>` and set it up
to deref to `&bar`.
