to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

This nicely handles the most common case of virtual register sets, but
also handles anticipated cases where we will map pointers to IDs.
The goal is not to develop a completely generic SparseSet
template. Instead we want to handle the expected uses within llvm
without any template antics in the client code. I'm adding a bit of
template nastiness here, and some assumption about expected usage in
order to make the client code very clean.
The expected common uses cases I'm designing for:
- integer keys that need to be reindexed, and may map to additional
data
- densely numbered objects where we want pointer keys because no
number->object map exists.

For objects that can be identified by small unsigned keys, SparseSet
provides constant time clear() and fast deterministic iteration. Insert,
erase, and find operations are typically faster than hash tables.
SparseSet is useful for keeping information about physical registers,
virtual registers, or numbered basic blocks.
