/// @brief      Describes a running instance of the Dart VM. There may only be
///             one running instance of the Dart VM in the process at any given
///             time. The Dart VM may be created and destroyed on any thread.
///             Typically, the first Flutter shell instance running in the
///             process bootstraps the Dart VM in the process as it starts up.
///             This cost is borne on the platform task runner of that first
///             Flutter shell. When the last Flutter shell instance is
///             destroyed, the VM is destroyed as well if all shell instances
///             were launched with the `Settings::leak_vm` flag set to false. If
///             there is any shell launch in the process with `leak_vm` set to
///             true, the VM is never shut down in the process. When the VM is
///             shutdown, the cost of the shutdown is borne on the platform task
///             runner of the last shell instance to be shut down.
///
///             Due to threading considerations, callers may never create an
///             instance of the DartVM directly. All constructors to the DartVM
///             are private. Instead, all callers that need a running VM
///             reference need to access it via the `DartVMRef::Create` call.
///             This call returns a strong reference to the running VM if one
///             exists in the process already. If a running VM instance is not
///             available in the process, a new instance is created and a strong
///             reference returned to the callers. The DartVMRef::Create call
///             ensures that there are no data races during the creation or
///             shutdown of a Dart VM (since a VM may be created and destroyed
///             on any thread). Due to this behavior, all callers needing a
///             running VM instance must provide snapshots and VM settings
///             necessary to create a VM (even if they end up not being used).
///
///             In a running VM instance, the service isolate is launched by
///             default if the VM is configured to do so. All root isolates must
///             be launched and referenced explicitly.
