15 * The stack presents an interface to a mutable sequence of reftables.
17 * A stack can be mutated by pushing a table to the top of the stack.
19 * The reftable_stack automatically compacts files on disk to ensure good
20 * amortized performance.
22 * For windows and other platforms that cannot have open files as rename
23 * destinations, concurrent access from multiple processes needs the rand()
24 * random seed to be randomized.
