/**
 * A DiscardableReferencePool allows handing out typed references to objects ("payloads") that can
 * be dropped in one batch ("drained"), e.g. under memory pressure. In contrast to {@link
 * java.lang.ref.WeakReference}s, which drop their referents when they get garbage collected, a
 * reference pool gives more precise control over when exactly it is drained.
 *
 * <p>Internally it uses a {@link WeakHashMap} with the reference itself as a key to allow the
 * payloads to be garbage collected regularly when the last reference goes away before the pool is
 * drained.
 *
 * <p>This class and its references are not thread-safe and should not be used simultaneously by
 * multiple threads.
