The contact library basically only creates references to the actual
vcard files, though it also can parse (via the `vobject` crate) the
information and return it from an entry directly.
The architecture of indirections is as follows:
```{.numberLines}
+--------------------------------+
| |
| Store, as ContactStore |
| |
+----------------+---------------+
|
| Provides access to
|
+----------------v---------------+
| |
| (FileLock)Entry as Contact |
| |
| which is actually a: |
| |
| (FileLock)Entry as Ref |
| |
+----------------+---------------+
|
| refers to
|
+----------------v---------------+
| |
| vcard file (outside store) |
| |
+----------------+---------------+
|
| contains
|
+----------------v---------------+
| |
| vcard data |
| |
+--------------------------------+
```
