# This class delegates method calls to the given object.
# If the returned value is an instance of the original object,
# the smart delegator will return a new instance of itself with
# the original object.
#
# This is in contrast to SimpleDelegator which will return the
# original object.
#
# The chart below demonstrates the difference:
#
# `mymessage` ->
# SimpleDelegator ->
# OriginalObject ->
# invokes `mymessage` returning self ->
# returns OriginalObject
# `mymessage` ->
# SmartDelegator ->
# OriginalObject ->
# invokes `mymessage` returning self ->
# returns SmartDelegator decorating OriginalObject
