Summary Make it possible to immediately wrap a retained out param in a smart pointer

We have a lot of code that calls system APIs that return retained pointers like this: SecAccessRef accessRef; status = SecAccessCreate((__bridge CFStringRef)localizedItemName, nullptr, &accessRef); RetainPtr<SecAccessRef> access = adoptCF(accessRef); This is error prone and makes it hard to write a style checker that finds adoptCF() errors. We should make it possible to have a smart pointer initialized directly at the point of "&accessRef".
