// A StatsTable is a table of statistics. It can be used across multiple
// processes and threads, maintaining cheap statistics counters without
// locking.
//
// The goal is to make it very cheap and easy for developers to add
// counters to code, without having to build one-off utilities or mechanisms
// to track the counters, and also to allow a single "view" to display
// the contents of all counters.
//
// To achieve this, StatsTable creates a shared memory segment to store
// the data for the counters. Upon creation, it has a specific size
// which governs the maximum number of counters and concurrent
// threads/processes which can use it.
