27   * Default object transfer, intermediary between producers and consumers.
28   *
29   * Holds value temporarily in memory, so can be used only when producer and
30   * consumer are in the same context. Nulls it out after supplying, so each
31   * object is returned only once, and second consecutive call to 'get' will
32   * return null.
33   *
34   * Useful for both:
35   *
36   * - passing data from vertexReceive function of WorkerReceivePiece of previous
37   * Piece to vertexSend function WorkerSendPiece of next Piece, of the same
38   * vertex.
39   * - when value is set on the master, and later read in block logic
40   * (RepeatUntilBlock), or in a different Piece, either on worker or master.
41   * If it is read within the same piece - just use local field.
42   *
43   * @param <T> Type of object to transfer.
