// An STL-like associative container which starts out backed by a simple
// array but switches to some other container type if it grows beyond a
// fixed size.
//
// WHAT TYPE OF MAP SHOULD YOU USE?
// --------------------------------
//
//  - std::map should be the default if you're not sure, since it's the most
//    difficult to mess up. Generally this is backed by a red-black tree. It
//    will generate a lot of code (if you use a common key type like int or
//    string the linker will probably emiminate the duplicates). It will
//    do heap allocations for each element.
//
//  - If you only ever keep a couple of items and have very simple usage,
//    consider whether a using a vector and brute-force searching it will be
//    the most efficient. It's not a lot of generated code (less then a
//    red-black tree if your key is "weird" and not eliminated as duplicate of
//    something else) and will probably be faster and do fewer heap allocations
//    than std::map if you have just a couple of items.
//
//  - base::hash_map should be used if you need O(1) lookups. It may waste
//    space in the hash table, and it can be easy to write correct-looking
//    code with the default hash function being wrong or poorly-behaving.
//
//  - SmallMap combines the performance benefits of the brute-force-searched
//    vector for small cases (no extra heap allocations), but can efficiently
//    fall back if you end up adding many items. It will generate more code
//    than std::map (at least 160 bytes for operator[]) which is bad if you
//    have a "weird" key where map functions can't be
//    duplicate-code-eliminated. If you have a one-off key and aren't in
//    performance-critical code, this bloat may negate some of the benefits and
//    you should consider on of the other options.
//
// SmallMap will pick up the comparator from the underlying map type. In
// std::map (and in MSVC additionally hash_map) only a "less" operator is
// defined, which requires us to do two comparisons per element when doing the
// brute-force search in the simple array.
//
// We define default overrides for the common map types to avoid this
// double-compare, but you should be aware of this if you use your own
// operator< for your map and supply yor own version of == to the SmallMap.
// You can use regular operator== by just doing:
//
//   base::SmallMap<std::map<MyKey, MyValue>, 4, std::equal_to<KyKey> >
//
//
// USAGE
// -----
//
// NormalMap:  The map type to fall back to.  This also defines the key
//             and value types for the SmallMap.
// kArraySize:  The size of the initial array of results. This will be
//              allocated with the SmallMap object rather than separately on
//              the heap. Once the map grows beyond this size, the map type
//              will be used instead.
// EqualKey:  A functor which tests two keys for equality.  If the wrapped
//            map type has a "key_equal" member (hash_map does), then that will
//            be used by default. If the wrapped map type has a strict weak
//            ordering "key_compare" (std::map does), that will be used to
//            implement equality by default.
// MapInit: A functor that takes a ManualConstructor<NormalMap>* and uses it to
//          initialize the map. This functor will be called at most once per
//          SmallMap, when the map exceeds the threshold of kArraySize and we
//          are about to copy values from the array to the map. The functor
//          *must* call one of the Init() methods provided by
//          ManualConstructor, since after it runs we assume that the NormalMap
//          has been initialized.
//
// example:
//   base::SmallMap< std::map<string, int> > days;
//   days["sunday"   ] = 0;
//   days["monday"   ] = 1;
//   days["tuesday"  ] = 2;
//   days["wednesday"] = 3;
//   days["thursday" ] = 4;
//   days["friday"   ] = 5;
//   days["saturday" ] = 6;
//
// You should assume that SmallMap might invalidate all the iterators
// on any call to erase(), insert() and operator[].
