/**
 * The {@link IndexHashTable} is a hash table which maps entries
 * of an array to their index in the array. All entries in the array must
 * be unique otherwise a well-defined mapping is not possible.
 * <p>
 * The entry objects must implement {@link Object#equals(Object)} and
 * {@link Object#hashCode()} otherwise the behavior of this class is
 * undefined.
 * <p>
 * The implementation uses a hash table with open addressing and linear probing.
 * <p>
 * The table is thread safe and can concurrently accessed by multiple threads,
 * thread safety is achieved through immutability. Though its not strictly immutable
 * which means, that the table must still be safely published to other threads.
