 * Storing JS GC thing pointers on the heap requires wrapping them in a
 * JS::Heap<T>, and this class takes care of that while presenting an interface
 * in terms of the wrapped type T.
 *
 * For example, to store a hashtable mapping strings to JSObject pointers, you
 * can declare a data member like this:
 *
 *   nsJSThingHashtable<nsStringHashKey, JSObject*> mStringToObjectMap;
 *
 * See nsBaseHashtable for complete declaration
 * @param KeyClass a wrapper-class for the hashtable key, see nsHashKeys.h
 *   for a complete specification.
 * @param DataType the datatype being wrapped, must be a JS GC thing.
 * @see nsInterfaceHashtable, nsClassHashtable
