            WHAT THIS OBJECT REPRESENTS
                This object is a version of dlib::any that is restricted to containing 
                elements which are some kind of function object with an operator() with 
                the following signature: 
                    result_type operator()(const sample_type&) const

                It is intended to be used to contain dlib::decision_function objects and
                other types which represent learned decision functions.  It allows you
                to write code which contains and processes these decision functions
                without needing to know the specific types of decision functions used.
