/**
 * Container associating units to locations.
 *
 * The indirection location -> underlying_id -> unit ensures that iterators stay valid even if WML
 * modifies or moves units on the fly. They even stay valid if a unit is erased from the map and
 * another unit with the same underlying id is inserted in the map. In other words, it is a doubly
 * indexed ordered map with persistent iterators (that never invalidate).
 *
 * @note The unit_map is implemented as 2 maps: an unordered map that stores iterators from the
 * ordered map of reference-counted pointers to units.
 *
 * The unordered map provides O(1) find times. The ordered map ensures ordering of units by
 * underlying_id. The reference counting is what guarantees the persistent iterators. Storing an
 * iterator only prevents that dead unit's id-map entry from being recovered.
 *
 * @note Preferred usages for tight loops follows:
 *
 * Use the std::pair<iterator, bool> format which checks the preconditions and returns false
 * (second) to indicate failure and no change to the unit_map. True indicates success along with the
 * new iterator (first).
 *
 * Storing the result iterator prevents the old iterator from entering the fallback recovery code.
 * This is faster than the old methodology of find to check if empty, insert, and then find to check
 * for success. It is the same method as std::map uses, the C++ way.
 *
 * ================================================================================================
 *
 * unit_iterator i;  //results are stored here
 *
 * ADD:
 *  std::pair<unit_iterator, bool> try_add(units->add(loc, unit));
 *  if(try_add.second) { i = try_add.first; }
 *
 * MOVE:
 *  std::pair<unit_iterator, bool> try_add(units->move(src, dst));
 *  if(try_add.second) { i = try_add.first; }
 *
 * INSERT:
 *  std::pair<unit_iterator, bool> try_add(units->insert(unitp));
 *  if(try_add.second) { i = try_add.first; }
 *
 * REPLACE (preferred over erase and then add)
 *  std::pair<unit_iterator, bool> try_add(units->move(loc, unit));
 *  if(try_add.second){ i = try_add.first; }
 *
 * ================================================================================================
 *
 *
 * @note The previous implementation was 2 binary tree based maps: a location map pointing to another.
 * Lookups were O(2*log(N)) and O(log(N)). Order was implicit in the id map chosen as the base.
 * Persistence was provided by reference counting all iterators collectively and only recovering space
 * when there were no iterators outstanding. Even 1 iterator being stored caused a leak, because all
 * space for dead units was not recovered.
 *
 * @note Units are owned by the container.
 *
 * @note The indirection does not involve map lookups whenever an iterator is dereferenced, it just
 * causes a pointer indirection. The downside is that incrementing iterators is not O(1).
 *
 * @note The code does not involve any magic, so units moved while being iterated upon may be skipped
 * or visited twice.
 *
 * @note Iterators prevent ghost units from being collected, so they should never be stored in data
 * structures, as it will cause slowdowns!
 *
 * @note By popular demand iterators are effectively permanent. They are handles and not iterators.
 * Any access might cause a full lookup. Keeping iterators around holds onto memory.
