As pointed out in [RFC issue 1043][rfc] it is quite useful to have the standard
I/O types to provide the contract that they are the sole owner of the underlying
object they represent. This guarantee enables writing safe interfaces like the
`MemoryMap` API sketched out in that issue.
[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/issues/1043
As constructing objects from these raw handles may end up violating these
ownership gurantees, the functions for construction are now marked unsafe.
