Keeping counters is quite common, and it might be interesting to have a safe and simple type. The `T` is because we might want any kind of integer, from Int8 to UInt128 or BigInt, and maybe even Floats or BigDecimal. The type would use the best strategy depending on `T`, from simple relaxed atomics to a mutex. Counters can easily be implemented with an `Atomic(T)` with `#add` and `#sub` but a counter doesn't need memory ordering, and repeating `:relaxed` can quickly become boring, leading apps to implement their own counter.
