305/// A centralized store for resolved contexts.
306///
307/// Contexts are the combination of a name and a set of tags. They're used to identify a specific metric series. As
308/// contexts are constructed entirely of strings, they're expensive to construct in a way that allows sending between
309/// tasks, as this usually requires allocations. Additionally, some context are "hotter" than others, used frequently by
310/// the applications/services sending us metrics.
311///
312/// In order to optimize this, the context resolver is responsible for both interning the strings involved where
313/// possible, as well as keeping a map of contexts that can be referred to with a cheap handle. We can cheaply search
314/// for an existing context without needing to allocate an entirely new one, and get a clone of the handle to use going
315/// forward.
316///
317/// # Design
318///
319/// `ContextResolver` specifically manages interning and mapping of contexts. It can be cheaply cloned itself.
320///
321/// In order to resolve a context, `resolve` must be called which requires taking a lock to check for an existing
322/// context. A read/write lock is used in order to prioritize lookups over inserts, as lookups are expected to be more
323/// common given how often a given context is used and resolved.
324///
325/// Once a context is resolved, a cheap handle -- `Context` -- is returned. This handle, like `ContextResolver`, can be
326/// cheaply cloned. It points directly to the underlying context data (name and tags) and provides access to these
327/// components.
