Ichthyostega fd782eb139 WIP: change management of test/mock PlacementIndex
now lifecycle of this mock index is managed automatically
from within the session services. This allows to get
rid of the smart-ptr creating factory. As a consequence,
PlacementIndex now resides directly within SessionImpl.

/** @file session-service-mock-index.hpp
** Implementation level session API: PlacementIndex mock for tests.
** Allows (temporarily) to replace the real Placement index within
** the session by a mock instance installed and provided through
** this API. Unit tests may use this \em backdoor to set up a
** specially prepared index to verify the behaviour of Placement
** and Scope resolution operations.
**
** The test/mock instance of the placement index obtained by this API
** is \em not wired with the session. Rather it is managed by smart-ptr.
** When the last smart-ptr instance goes out of scope, the test index
** instance will be shut down and removed, thereby uncovering the
** original PlacementIndex living within the session.
**
** @see session-impl.hpp implementation of the service
** @see session-services.cpp implementation of access
