/*****
***** Module Info
*****/
* \brief
* Provides a simple memory-based symbol table.
*
* Keys are C strings. A type may be specified when looking up,
* defining, or undefining. A type value of 0 means "match any type";
* any other value will only match the given type.
*
* It's possible that a client will attempt to define a <key, type,
* value> tuple when a tuple with the given key and type already
* exists in the table. What to do in this case is specified by the
* client. Possible policies are:
*
*\li isccc_symexists_reject Disallow the define, returning #ISC_R_EXISTS
*\li isccc_symexists_replace Replace the old value with the new. The
* undefine action (if provided) will be called
* with the old <key, type, value> tuple.
*\li isccc_symexists_add Add the new tuple, leaving the old tuple in
* the table. Subsequent lookups will retrieve
* the most-recently-defined tuple.
*
* A lookup of a key using type 0 will return the most-recently
* defined symbol with that key. An undefine of a key using type 0
* will undefine the most-recently defined symbol with that key.
* Trying to define a key with type 0 is illegal.
*
* The symbol table library does not make a copy the key field, so the
* caller must ensure that any key it passes to isccc_symtab_define()
* will not change until it calls isccc_symtab_undefine() or
* isccc_symtab_destroy().
*
* A user-specified action will be called (if provided) when a symbol
* is undefined. It can be used to free memory associated with keys
