/**
* ExpirationTracker classes:
* - ExpirationTrackerImpl (Thread-safe class)
* - nsExpirationTracker (Main-thread only class)
*
* These classes can track the lifetimes and usage of a large number of
* objects, and send a notification some window of time after a live object was
* last used. This is very useful when you manage a large number of objects
* and want to flush some after they haven't been used for a while.
* nsExpirationTracker is designed to be very space and time efficient.
*
* The type parameter T is the object type that we will track pointers to. T
* must include an accessible method GetExpirationState() that returns a
* pointer to an nsExpirationState associated with the object (preferably,
* stored in a field of the object).
*
* The parameter K is the number of generations that will be used. Increasing
* the number of generations narrows the window within which we promise
* to fire notifications, at a slight increase in space cost for the tracker.
* We require 2 <= K <= nsExpirationState::NOT_TRACKED (currently 15).
*
* To use this class, you need to inherit from it and override the
* NotifyExpired() method.
*
* The approach is to track objects in K generations. When an object is accessed
* it moves from its current generation to the newest generation. Generations
* are stored in a cyclic array; when a timer interrupt fires, we advance
* the current generation pointer to effectively age all objects very
* efficiently. By storing information in each object about its generation and
* index within its generation array, we make removal of objects from a
* generation very cheap.
*
* Future work:
* -- Add a method to change the timer period?
