 * Used to intern strings.
 *
 * There are actually two tables: one that holds strong references to its strings, and one that
 * holds weak references. The former is used for string literals, for which there is an effective
 * reference from the constant pool. The latter is used for strings interned at runtime via
 * String.intern. Some code (XML parsers being a prime example) relies on being able to intern
 * arbitrarily many strings for the duration of a parse without permanently increasing the memory
 * footprint.
