When entries are inserted and removed into a hash map at an equivalent rate (maintaining a mostly-consistent total count of entries), it should never need to be resized. But `HashMapUnmanaged.available` does not presently count tombstoned slots as "available", so this put/remove pattern eventually panics (assertion failure) when `available` reaches `0`.
The solution implemented here is to count tombstoned slots as "available". Another approach (which hashbrown (b3eaf32e60/src/raw/mod.rs (L1455-L1542)) takes) would be to rehash all entries in place when there are too many tombstones. This is more complex but avoids an `O(n)` bad case when the hash map is full of many tombstones.

The ultimate goal of the Zig project is to serve users. As a first-order effect, this means users of the compiler, helping programmers to write better software. Even more important, however, are the end-users.
Zig is intended to be used to help end-users accomplish their goals. Zig should be used to empower end-users, never to exploit them financially, or to limit their freedom to interact with hardware or software in any way.
However, such problems are best solved with social norms, not with software licenses. Any attempt to complicate the software license of Zig would risk compromising the value Zig provides.
Therefore, Zig is available under the MIT (Expat) License, and comes with a humble request: use it to make software better serve the needs of end-users.
This project redistributes code from other projects, some of which have other licenses besides MIT. Such licenses are generally similar to the MIT license for practical purposes. See the subdirectories and files inside lib/ for more details.
