eliminating the need to use the equivalent of an atomically markable

Template arguments:
- - \p GC - garbage collector used
- - \p T - type stored in the list. The type must be default- and copy-constructible.
- - \p Traits - type traits, default is lazy_list::type_traits
+ - \p GC - garbage collector: \p gc::HP, \p gp::DHP
+ - \p T - type to be stored in the list.
+ - \p Traits - type traits, default is \p lazy_list::traits.

+ // Declare comparator for the item
+ struct my_compare {

- acceptable as candidate for \p lock_type.
- - opt::compare - key compare functor. No default functor is provided.
- If the option is not specified, the opt::less is used.
- - opt::less - specifies binary predicate used for key compare. Default is \p std::less<T>.
- - opt::back_off - back-off strategy used. If the option is not specified, the cds::backoff::empty is used.
- - opt::item_counter - the type of item counting feature. Default is \ref atomicity::empty_item_counter that is no item counting.
- - opt::allocator - the allocator used for creating and freeing list's item. Default is \ref CDS_DEFAULT_ALLOCATOR macro.
- - opt::memory_model - C++ memory ordering model. Can be opt::v::relaxed_ordering (relaxed memory model, the default)
- or opt::v::sequential_consistent (sequentially consisnent memory model).

\par Usage
There are different specializations of this template for each garbage collecting schema used.
You should include appropriate .h-file depending on GC you are using:

- - for gc::PTB: \code #include <cds/container/lazy_list_ptb.h> \endcode
- - for \ref cds_urcu_desc "RCU": \code #include <cds/container/lazy_list_rcu.h> \endcode
- - for gc::nogc: \code #include <cds/container/lazy_list_nogc.h> \endcode
+ - for gc::HP: <tt> <cds/container/lazy_list_hp.h> </tt>
+ - for gc::DHP: <tt> <cds/container/lazy_list_dhp.h> </tt>
+ - for \ref cds_urcu_desc "RCU": <tt> <cds/container/lazy_list_rcu.h> </tt>

- - if inserting is successful, initialize non-key fields of item by calling \p f functor

with arguments:

- - \p item - item of the list
