/*
 * The state-mirroring machinery allows pieces of interesting state to be
 * observed on multiple thread without locking. The basic strategy is to track
 * changes in a canonical value and post updates to other threads that hold
 * mirrors for that value.
 *
 * One problem with the naive implementation of such a system is that some pieces
 * of state need to be updated atomically, and certain other operations need to
 * wait for these atomic updates to complete before executing. The state-mirroring
 * machinery solves this problem by requiring that its owner thread uses tail
 * dispatch, and posting state update events (which should always be run first by
 * TaskDispatcher implementations) to that tail dispatcher. This ensures that
 * state changes are always atomic from the perspective of observing threads.
 *
 * Given that state-mirroring is an automatic background process, we try to avoid
 * burdening the caller with worrying too much about teardown. To that end, we
 * don't assert dispatch success for any of the notifications, and assume that
 * any canonical or mirror owned by a thread for whom dispatch fails will soon
 * be disconnected by its holder anyway.
 *
 * Given that semantics may change and comments tend to go out of date, we
 * deliberately don't provide usage examples here. Grep around to find them.
