+ * Represents something which can be *sealed* (imperatively marked as immutable).
+ *
+ * Why do we need this? In Fabric, some objects are semi-immutable
+ * even if they explicitly marked as `const`. It means that in some special
+ * cases those objects can be const-cast-away and then mutated. That comes from
+ * the fact that we share some object's life-cycle responsibilities with React
+ * and the immutability is guaranteed by some logic splitted between native and
+ * JavaScript worlds (which makes impossible to fully use immutability
+ * enforcement at a language level).
+ * To detect possible errors as early as possible we additionally mark objects
+ * as *sealed* after some stage and then enforce this at run-time.
+ *
+ * How to use:
+ *   1. Inherit your class from `Sealable`.
+ *   2. Call `ensureUnsealed()` from all non-const methods.
+ *   3. Call `seal()` at some point from which any modifications
+ *      must be prevented.
