    This is a helper function to add a C++ redirect context manager to Python
    instead of using a C++ guard. To use it, add the following to your binding code:

    .. code-block:: cpp

        #include <pybind11/iostream.h>

        ...

        py::add_ostream_redirect(m, "ostream_redirect");

        with m.ostream_redirect():
            m.print_to_cout_function()

    This manager can optionally be told which streams to operate on:
