17/// An `InternSet` allows to "intern" some potentially large values, maintaining a single value
18/// instance owned by the `InternSet` and leaving consumers with lightweight ref-counted handles to
19/// the large owned value.  This can avoid expensive clone() operations.
20///
21/// In Mentat, such large values might be strings or arbitrary [a v] pairs.
