/**  
A templated function that is used by a library (DLL) that requires to use
WSD on the emulator.
The function returns the PLS (Process Local Storage) object of the specified library, 
for the current process. If the PLS object doesn't yet exist then it is allocated, 
initialised, stored and returned.
The template type T is the type of the PLS object, and is supplied by the caller.

Takes as a parameter the TUid of the library DLL whose PLS is to be returned for the 
current process. It also takes as a parameter a pointer to a (non-leaving, non-panicing) 
initialisation function defined by the caller which takes a pointer to T (i.e. the 
PLS object) as a parameter and returns one of the system wide error codes as a TInt.
This parameter is optional but it should be used when necessary to ensure that if Pls() 
requires to create a PLS object then the object is completely initialised on its return. 
The initialisation function is called after the PLS object has been allocated and its 
constructor called if it is an instance of a class - neither the constructor nor the 
initialisation function should call Pls().

Returns a pointer to the PLS object
