New Features 🌟

Added facilities for shared/weak ownership by @mingxwa in https://github.com/microsoft/proxy/pull/264:
function template make_proxy_shared: Similar to instantiating a proxy with std::shared_ptr, but
- Without additional type-erasure on the deleter,
- Having a more compact memory layout without requiring a separate control block,
- Without weak ownership support if not desired.
function template allocate_proxy_shared: Similar to make_proxy_shared() while supports any custom allocators.
alias template weak_proxy and class template weak_facade: Specify proxy with weak ownership.
basic_facade_builder::support_weak: Specifies that a facade type F supports conversion from proxy<F> to weak_proxy<F>.
function template make_proxy_view by @mingxwa in https://github.com/microsoft/proxy/pull/265: Similar to creating a proxy_view from a raw pointer, but honors constness and reference semantics.
concept proxiable_target by @mingxwa in https://github.com/microsoft/proxy/pull/265: Specifies that a reference type can instantiate a proxy_view.

Quality Improvements 🔬

Improved diagnostics by reducing constraints by @mingxwa in https://github.com/microsoft/proxy/pull/262. Thanks to @SidneyCogdill for the great idea!
Allowed creating proxy from a null pointer by @mingxwa in https://github.com/microsoft/proxy/pull/260
Prefered static operator() if available by @mingxwa in https://github.com/microsoft/proxy/pull/267
Constrained proxy with facade by @mingxwa in https://github.com/microsoft/proxy/pull/263
Switched lifetime convention to standard dispatch model by @mingxwa in https://github.com/microsoft/proxy/pull/269
Aligned behavior of direct and indirect proxy_invoke with rvalue reference by @mingxwa in https://github.com/microsoft/proxy/pull/271

Toolchain Updates 🛠️

Added benchmarks for shared ownership both in indirect invocation and lifetime management by @mingxwa in https://github.com/microsoft/proxy/pull/264. Below are the numbers from a recent CI build:

	MSVC on Windows	GCC on Ubuntu	Clang on Ubuntu	Apple Clang on macOS	NVIDIA HPC on Ubuntu
Indirect invocation on small objects via `proxy` vs. virtual functions (shared ownership)	🟢`proxy` is about 327.6% faster	🟢`proxy` is about 83.2% faster	🟢`proxy` is about 46.1% faster	🟢`proxy` is about 26.8% faster	🟢`proxy` is about 75.5% faster
Indirect invocation on large objects via `proxy` vs. virtual functions (shared ownership)	🟢`proxy` is about 165.3% faster	🟢`proxy` is about 28.4% faster	🟢`proxy` is about 20.8% faster	🔴`proxy` is about 5.1% slower	🟢`proxy` is about 8.6% faster
Basic lifetime management for small objects with `proxy` (shared ownership) vs. `std::shared_ptr` (both without memory pool)	🟢`proxy` is about 11.8% faster	🟢`proxy` is about 10.8% faster	🟢`proxy` is about 8.5% faster	🟢`proxy` is about 37.5% faster	🟢`proxy` is about 8.8% faster
Basic lifetime management for small objects with `proxy` (shared ownership) vs. `std::shared_ptr` (both with memory pool)	🟢`proxy` is about 5.7% faster	🟡`proxy` is about 4.0% faster	🟢`proxy` is about 21.5% faster	🟢`proxy` is about 30.5% faster	🟡`proxy` is about 1.6% faster
Basic lifetime management for large objects with `proxy` (shared ownership) vs. `std::shared_ptr` (both without memory pool)	🟢`proxy` is about 21.1% faster	🟢`proxy` is about 6.0% faster	🟡`proxy` is about 0.4% slower	🟢`proxy` is about 48.9% faster	🟢`proxy` is about 8.7% faster
Basic lifetime management for large objects with `proxy` (shared ownership) vs. `std::shared_ptr` (both with memory pool)	🟢`proxy` is about 17.7% faster	🟢`proxy` is about 11.2% faster	🟢`proxy` is about 29.1% faster	🟢`proxy` is about 10.5% faster	🟡`proxy` is about 4.5% faster
