  /**
   * Enables to threat nullable type as non-nullable with no assertions.
   *
   * It is useful in the case you have a nullable lately-initialized field like the following:
   * {@code class Wrapper { @Nullable T value; }}.
   * That signature allows to use {@code Wrapper} with both nullable or non-nullable types:
   * {@code Wrapper<@Nullable Integer>} vs {@code Wrapper}. Suppose you need to implement
   * {@code T get() { return value; }} The issue is checkerframework does not permit that
   * because {@code T} has unknown nullability, so the following needs to be used:
   * {@code T get() { return sneakyNull(value); }}
   *
   * @param      the type of the reference
   * @param ref     a reference of @Nullable type, that is non-null at run time
   * @return the argument, casted to have the type qualifier @NonNull
