///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// This file define a generic, embedded, remotely accessible hash table.
//
// It can be accessed by any thread, running in any cluster.
// It is generic as it can be used to register various types of items.
// The main goal is to speedup search by key for a large number of items of same type.
// For this purpose the set of all registered items is split in several subsets.
// Each subset is organised an embedded double linked lists.
// - an item is uniquely identified by a <key>, that can be a single uint32_t, 
//   a name (character string), or a more complex structure.
// - From the pointer on <key>, we use an item type specific xhtab_index() function,
//   to compute an <index> value, defining a subset of registered items.
// - to discriminate between items that have the same <index>, the hash table uses another
//   item type specific "xhtab_scan()" function for the associative search in subset.
// - Each registered item is a structure, that must contain an embedded xlist_entry,
//   that is part of the xlist implementing the subset. 
//
// Implementation Note: for each supported item type ***, you must define the two
//                      xhtab_***_index() and xhtab_***_scan() functions, and
//                      update the xhtab_init() function.
