/**
 * Hash table implementation of a map from integers to pointers, implemented
 * using the Hopscotch Hashing algorithm by Herlihy, Shavit, and Tzafrir (see
 * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hopscotch_hashing). This implementation does
 * not contain any of the locking/concurrency features of the algorithm, just
 * the collision resolution scheme.
 *
 * Hopscotch Hashing is based on hashing with open addressing and linear
 * probing. All the entries are stored in a fixed array of buckets, with no
 * dynamic allocation for collisions. Unlike linear probing, all the entries
 * that hash to a given bucket are stored within a fixed neighborhood starting
 * at that bucket. Chaining is effectively represented as a bit vector
 * relative to each bucket instead of as pointers or explicit offsets.
 *
 * When an empty bucket cannot be found within a given neighborhood,
 * subsequent neighborhoods are searched, and one or more entries will "hop"
 * into those neighborhoods. When this process works, an empty bucket will
 * move into the desired neighborhood, allowing the entry to be added. When
 * that process fails (typically when the buckets are around 90% full), the
 * table must be resized and the all entries rehashed and added to the
 * expanded table.
 *
 * Unlike linear probing, the number of buckets that must be searched in the
 * worst case has a fixed upper bound (the size of the neighborhood). Those
 * entries occupy a small number of memory cache lines, leading to improved
 * use of the cache (fewer misses on both successful and unsuccessful
 * searches). Hopscotch hashing outperforms linear probing at much higher load
 * factors, so even with the increased memory burden for maintaining the hop
 * vectors, less memory is needed to achieve that performance. Hopscotch is
 * also immune to "contamination" from deleting entries since entries are
 * genuinely removed instead of being replaced by a placeholder.
 *
 * The published description of the algorithm used a bit vector, but the paper
 * alludes to an offset scheme which is used by this implementation. Since the
 * entries in the neighborhood are within N entries of the hash bucket at the
 * start of the neighborhood, a pair of small offset fields each log2(N) bits
 * wide is all that's needed to maintain the hops as a linked list. In order
 * to encode "no next hop" (i.e. NULL) as the natural initial value of zero,
 * the offsets are biased by one (i.e. 0 => NULL, 1 => offset=0, 2 =>
 * offset=1, etc.) We can represent neighborhoods of up to 255 entries with
 * just 8+8=16 bits per entry. The hop list is sorted by hop offset so the
 * first entry in the list is always the bucket closest to the start of the
 * neighborhood.
 *
 * While individual accesses tend to be very fast, the table resize operations
 * are very very expensive. If an upper bound on the latency of adding an
 * entry to the table is needed, we either need to ensure the table is
 * pre-sized to be large enough so no resize is ever needed, or we'll need to
 * develop an approach to incrementally resize the table.
