// A multiprocess-safe database of the visited links for the browser. There
// should be exactly one process that has write access (implemented by
// VisitedLinkMaster), while all other processes should be read-only
// (implemented by VisitedLinkSlave). These other processes add links by calling
// the writer process to add them for it. The writer may also notify the readers
// to replace their table when the table is resized.
//
// IPC is not implemented in these classes. This is done through callback
// functions supplied by the creator of these objects to allow more flexibility,
// especially for testing.
//
// This class defines the common base for these others. We implement accessors
// for looking things up in the hash table, and for computing hash values and
// fingerprints. Both the master and the slave inherit from this, and add their
// own code to set up and change these values as their design requires. The
// slave pretty much just sets up the shared memory and saves the pointer. The
// master does a lot of work to manage the table, reading and writing it to and
// from disk, and resizing it when it gets too full.
//
// To ask whether a page is in history, we compute a 64-bit fingerprint of the
// URL. This URL is hashed and we see if it is in the URL hashtable. If it is,
// we consider it visited. Otherwise, it is unvisited. Note that it is possible
// to get collisions, which is the penalty for not storing all URL strings in
// memory (which could get to be more than we want to have in memory). We use
// a salt value for the links on one computer so that an attacker can not
// manually create a link that causes a collision.
