Instantiating RefCounted with a class or interface type should reference-count the actual instance and not just a class reference. To this end, RefCounted currently rejects instantiating with class types for forward-compatibility purposes (at least I'm pretty sure that's why it does it).

I filed a PR to reject interface types as well until class support is properly implemented: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pull/2977
