// or destroyed) cannot safely run concurrently with another read or write
// operation. This meaning of "safe" is only partial; for example, it does not
// cover whether a single entry in the table is modified by two separate
// threads. (Doing such checking would be much harder.)

// addresses an entry struct whose mKeyHash member has been set non-zero, but
// all other entry members are still clear (null). Add() callers can test such
// members to see whether the entry was newly created by the Add() call that
