 * lws_map
 *
 * Discrete owner object represents the whole map, created with key-specific
 * ops for hashing the key to a uint32_t and comparing two keys.  Owns a list
 * of hash tables whose size / modulo it set at creation time.
 *
 * Items in the map are contained in a lws_map_item_t that is indexed in a
 * hash table.
 *
 * It's difficult to make a single compact map abstraction that fits all cases,
 * this is useful to the extent you have the memory to trade off the number of
 * hashtables needed for the amount of items and the lookup latency limit for
 * your application, typically for hundreds or low thousands of items.
