// A class to model storage of thread-specific values, that can be
// destroyed on thread exit.
//
// Note that on Windows, a thread must call OnThreadExit() explicitly
// here to ensure that the values are probably discarded. This is an
// unfortunate requirement of the Win32 API, which doesn't support
// destructors at all.
//
// There are various hacks on the web to try to achieve this automatically
// (e.g. [1]) but they rely on using the Microsoft build tools,
// which doesn't work for us.
//
// Note another important issue with ThreadStore instances: if you create
// one instance in a shared library, you need to make sure that it is
// always destroyed before the library is unloaded. Otherwise, future
// thread exit will likely crash, due to calling a destructor function
// that is no longer in the process' address space.
//
// Finally, destroying an instance does _not_ free the corresponding values,
// because doing so properly requires coordinating all participating threads,
// which is impossible to achieve in the most general case. Thus, consider
// that thread-local values are always leaked on library unload, or on
// program exit.
