+/* (Maybe-cuckoo) hpack encoder hash table implementation.
+
+   This hashtable implementation is a subset of a proper cuckoo hash; while we
+   have fallback cells that a value can be hashed to if the first cell is full,
+   we do not attempt to iteratively rearrange entries into backup cells to get
+   things to fit. Instead, if both a cell and the backup cell for a value are
+   occupied, the older existing entry is evicted.
+
+   Note that we can disable backup-cell picking by setting
+   GRPC_HPACK_ENCODER_USE_CUCKOO_HASH to 0. In that case, we simply evict an
+   existing entry rather than try to use a backup. Hence, "maybe-cuckoo."
