/**
 *  Increments the number of calls to this object by one.
 *
 *  After this method succeeds, it is guaranted that the object will remain in
 *  the Ready (or in the Limited) state at least until #releaseCaller() is
 *  called.
 *
 *  This method is intended to mark the beginning of sections of code within
 *  methods of COM objects that depend on the readiness (Ready) state. The
 *  Ready state is a primary "ready to serve" state. Usually all code that
 *  works with component's data depends on it. On practice, this means that
 *  almost every public method, setter or getter of the object should add
 *  itself as an object's caller at the very beginning, to protect from an
 *  unexpected uninitialization that may happen on a different thread.
 *
 *  Besides the Ready state denoting that the object is fully functional,
 *  there is a special Limited state. The Limited state means that the object
 *  is still functional, but its functionality is limited to some degree, so
 *  not all operations are possible. The @a aLimited argument to this method
 *  determines whether the caller represents this limited functionality or not.
 *
 *  This method succeeeds (and increments the number of callers) only if the
 *  current object's state is Ready. Otherwise, it will return E_UNEXPECTED to
 *  indicate that the object is not operational. There are two exceptions from
 *  this rule:
 *  <ol>
 *    <li>If the @a aLimited argument is |true|, then this method will also
 *        succeeed if the object's state is Limited (or Ready, of course).</li>
 *    <li>If this method is called from the same thread that placed the object
 *        to InInit or InUninit state (i.e. either from within the AutoInitSpan
 *        or AutoUninitSpan scope), it will succeed as well (but will not
 *        increase the number of callers).</li>
 *  </ol> 
 *
 *  Normally, calling addCaller() never blocks. However, if this method is
 *  called by a thread created from within the AutoInitSpan scope and this
 *  scope is still active (i.e. the object state is InInit), it will block
 *  until the AutoInitSpan destructor signals that it has finished
 *  initialization.
 *
 *  When this method returns a failure, the caller must not use the object
 *  and can return the failed result code to his caller.
 *
 *  @param aState       where to store the current object's state
 *                      (can be used in overriden methods to determine the
 *                      cause of the failure)
 *  @param aLimited     |true| to add a limited caller.
 *  @return             S_OK on success or E_UNEXPECTED on failure
 *
 *  @note It is preferrable to use the #addLimitedCaller() rather than calling
 *        this method with @a aLimited = |true|, for better
 *        self-descriptiveness.
