  17 There are three kinds of slots in the table:
  18
  19 1. Unused.  me_key == me_value == NULL
  20    Does not hold an active (key, value) pair now and never did.  Unused can
  21    transition to Active upon key insertion.  This is the only case in which
  22    me_key is NULL, and is each slot's initial state.
  23
  24 2. Active.  me_key != NULL and me_key != dummy and me_value != NULL
  25    Holds an active (key, value) pair.  Active can transition to Dummy upon
  26    key deletion.  This is the only case in which me_value != NULL.
  27
  28 3. Dummy.  me_key == dummy and me_value == NULL
  29    Previously held an active (key, value) pair, but that was deleted and an
  30    active pair has not yet overwritten the slot.  Dummy can transition to
  31    Active upon key insertion.  Dummy slots cannot be made Unused again
  32    (cannot have me_key set to NULL), else the probe sequence in case of
  33    collision would have no way to know they were once active.
  34
  35 Note: .popitem() abuses the me_hash field of an Unused or Dummy slot to
  36 hold a search finger.  The me_hash field of Unused or Dummy slots has no
  37 meaning otherwise.
