[This is preliminary documentation and is subject to change.]
Represents a pointer to the pile object (object stored in a pile).
The reference may be local or distributed in which case the NodeID is>=0.
Distributed pointers are very useful for organizing piles of objects distributed among many servers, for example
for "Big Memory" implementations or large neural networks where nodes may inter-connect between servers.
The CLR reference to the IPile is not a part of this struct for performance and practicality reasons, as
it is highly unlikely that there are going to be more than one instance of a pile in a process, however
should more than 1 pile be allocated than this pointer would need to be wrapped in some other structure along with source IPile reference
