How to properly implement ARC compatible and `alloc init` safe Singleton class?

Apple recommends the strict singleton implementation (no other living object of the same type is allowed) this way:

+ (instancetype)singleton {
    static id singletonInstance = nil;
    if (!singletonInstance) {
        static dispatch_once_t onceToken;
        dispatch_once(&onceToken, ^{
            singletonInstance = [[super allocWithZone:NULL] init];
        });
    }
    return singletonInstance;
}

+ (id)allocWithZone:(NSZone *)zone {
    return [self singleton];
}

- (id)copyWithZone:(NSZone *)zone {
    return self;
}
