/** A `DelayedLazyVal` is a wrapper for lengthy computations which have a
 *  valid partially computed result.
 *
 *  The first argument is a function for obtaining the result at any given
 *  point in time, and the second is the lengthy computation.  Once the
 *  computation is complete, the `apply` method will stop recalculating it
 *  and return a fixed value from that point forward.
 *
 *  @param  f      the function to obtain the current value at any point in time
 *  @param  body   the computation to run to completion in another thread
