/**
* Feature represents a certain subset of Acedia's functionality that
* can be enabled or disabled, according to server owner's wishes.
* In the current version of Acedia enabling or disabling a feature requires
* manually editing configuration file and restarting a server.
* Creating a `Feature` instance should be done by using
* `EnableMe()` / `DisableMe()` methods; instead of regular `Constructor()`
* and `Finalizer()` one should use `OnEnabled() and `OnDisabled()` methods.
* Any instances created through other means will be automatically deallocated,
* enforcing `Singleton`-like behavior for the `Feature` class.
