Clones a reference of a message. Use this for doing a copy of an existing message (especially of a different type) into this one.

IMPORTANT: This is not the same as Clone () () () () which is why this message type does not implement ICloneable. This does not behave the same as Clone () () () () . It is not recommended that any code outside of Messaging core code use this function without understanding how it works, what its limitations are, and why it's being used.
