// Summary of structures:
//
// struct CallStack:
//   Represents a unique call stack, defined by its raw call stack (array of
//   pointers), and hash value. All CallStack objects are owned by class
//   CallStackManager. Other classes may hold pointers to them but should not
//   attempt to create or modify any CallStack objects.
//
// class CallStackManager:
//   Creates CallStack objects to represent unique call stacks. Owns all
//   CallStack objects that it creates, storing them internally.
//
//   Returns the call stacks as const pointers because no caller should take
//   ownership of them and modify or delete them. The lifetime of all CallStack
//   objects is limited to that of the CallStackManager object that created
//   them. When the CallStackManager is destroyed, the CallStack objects will be
//   invalidated. Hence the caller should make sure that it does not use
//   CallStack objects beyond the lifetime of the CallStackManager that created
//   them.
