    /// Michael's ordered list

        \anchor cds_nonintrusive_MichaelList_gc

        Usually, ordered single-linked list is used as a building block for the hash table implementation.
        The complexity of searching is <tt>O(N)</tt>, where \p N is the item count in the list, not in the
        hash table.

        Source:
        - [2002] Maged Michael "High performance dynamic lock-free hash tables and list-based sets"

        This class is non-intrusive version of cds::intrusive::MichaelList class

        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 \p michael_list::traits

        Unlike standard container, this implementation does not divide type \p T into key and value part and
        may be used as a main building block for hash set algorithms.
        The key is a function (or a part) of type \p T, and this function is specified by <tt>Traits::compare</tt> functor
        or <tt>Traits::less</tt> predicate

        MichaelKVList is a key-value version of Michael's non-intrusive list that is closer to the C++ std library approach.

        It is possible to declare option-based list with cds::container::michael_list::make_traits metafunction istead of \p Traits template
        argument. For example, the following traits-based declaration of gc::HP Michael's list
        \code
        #include <cds/container/michael_list_hp.h>
        // Declare comparator for the item
        struct my_compare {
            int operator ()( int i1, int i2 )
            {
                return i1 - i2;
            }
        };

        // Declare traits
        struct my_traits: public cds::container::michael_list::traits
        {
            typedef my_compare compare;
        };

        // Declare traits-based list
        typedef cds::container::MichaelList< cds::gc::HP, int, my_traits >     traits_based_list;
        \endcode

        is equivalent for the following option-based list
        \code
        #include <cds/container/michael_list_hp.h>

        // my_compare is the same

        // Declare option-based list
        typedef cds::container::MichaelList< cds::gc::HP, int,
            typename cds::container::michael_list::make_traits<
                cds::container::opt::compare< my_compare >     // item comparator option
            >::type
        >     option_based_list;
        \endcode

        \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::HP: \code #include <cds/container/michael_list_hp.h> \endcode
        - for gc::DHP: \code #include <cds/container/michael_list_dhp.h> \endcode
        - for \ref cds_urcu_desc "RCU": \code #include <cds/container/michael_list_rcu.h> \endcode
        - for gc::nogc: \code #include <cds/container/michael_list_nogc.h> \endcode

            - it has no post-increment operator
            - to protect the value, the iterator contains a GC-specific guard + another guard is required locally for increment operator.
              For some GC (\p gc::HP), a guard is limited resource per thread, so an exception (or assertion) "no free guard"
              may be thrown if a limit of guard count per thread is exceeded.
            - The iterator cannot be moved across thread boundary since it contains GC's guard that is thread-private GC data.
            - Iterator ensures thread-safety even if you delete the item that iterator points to. However, in case of concurrent
              deleting operations it is no guarantee that you iterate all item in the list.

            Therefore, the use of iterators in concurrent environment is not good idea. Use the iterator on the concurrent container

            The argument \p itemValue of user-defined functor \p func is the reference

            The object of \p value_type should be constructible from \p key of type \p Q.

            The function allows to split creating of new item into two part:

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

            The method can be useful if complete initialization of object of \p value_type is heavyweight and
            it is preferable that the initialization should be completed only if inserting is successful.
