5/// An attribute's value, interned so identical values are stored once.
6///
7/// This was a plain `String`, which meant one separate heap allocation per
8/// attribute per element with no sharing between them. A census over the
9/// application's own transcript markup
10/// (`blitz-tests/tests/attribute_value_duplication.rs`) found **777 attribute
11/// values of which 54 were distinct**: 14.4x duplication, and 91.3% of the
12/// value bytes were a copy of a string already in the tree. One `class` string
13/// appeared 24 times. That is what a Tailwind UI looks like in memory, and it
14/// is the shape Blink shares through `ElementDataCache` for the same reason
15/// (`element_data.h:172`, "very common for many elements to have duplicate
16/// sets of attributes (ex. the same classes)").
17///
18/// `Atom` is the right tool and was already in the dependency graph, because
19/// `QualName` above is built from it. It is 8 bytes against `String`'s 24,
20/// stores up to 7 bytes inline with no heap allocation at all, and interns
21/// anything longer in a refcounted global table with per-bucket locks rather
22/// than one global one.
23///
24/// The trade is a hash and a possible lock acquisition per *write*, against a
25/// heap allocation and a memcpy per write today, and equality becoming a
26/// pointer comparison rather than a memcmp. Reads are unaffected: this derefs
27/// to `str`, so every `&attr.value`, `.as_str()`, `.parse()` and `==` call
28/// site continues to compile and mean the same thing.
29///
30/// `Atom` is generic over a set of strings interned at compile time. We have
31/// none to pre-intern: attribute *names* are already atoms via `QualName`, and
32/// values are arbitrary author strings, so every one of ours takes the dynamic
33/// path. `EmptyStaticAtomSet` is the crate's own declaration of that case.
34///
35/// Named `AttrAtom` rather than the more obvious `AttrValue`, because stylo
36/// already exports an `AttrValue` enum that `document.rs` uses in the same
37/// breath as this type. Two different things under one name in one file is how
38/// a later reader loses an afternoon.
