/** \class MemoryAreaFactory
 *  \brief MemoryAreaFactory avoids creating duplicated MemoryAreas of the
 *   same file.
 *
 *  Users can give duplicated input files on the command line. In order to 
 *  prevent opening the same file twice, and create redundant MemoryRegions,
 *  mcld::Input should not create MemoryArea directly. Instead, it should ask
 *  MemoryAreaFactory and get the unique MemoryArea.
 *
 *  The timing of opening and closing files is not strictly bound to the
 *  constructor and destructor of MCLDFile. For mcld::Output, MCLinker
 *  opens the file rather after assigning offset to sections. On the other
 *  aside, mcld::Input opens the file at constructor. In order to hide the
 *  file operations, MemoryAreaFactory actually open the file untill the first
 *  MemoryRegion is requested.
 *
