closes #228

unique ptr is convertible to shared ptr natively. It makes sense to construct
unique_ptr first and convert it to shared_ptr if it is needed.

OpenSuse Leap package builds fail with undefined reference to dlclose
and dlopen. The -ldl link flag is missing (see the error below).
Let's fix that by adding the ${CMAKE_DL_LIBS} link target [1] to
alib2cli.

a step forward to remove any need for container extensions

While working on webui, I have noticed that exports from
automata-library contain for many algorithms documentation set to
string "Documentation not available.". I traced the problem back to this
project.

I do not think "Documentation not available" is itself a valid
documentation of an algorithm so I decided to replace the std::string
that is supposed to hold documentation of an overload with an
std::optional<std::string>. The semantics should now be clearer.
