use std::{collections, hash, ops::DerefMut, sync};
/// Trait implemented by types which can be cleared in place, retaining any
/// allocated memory.
///
/// This is essentially a generalization of methods on standard library
/// collection types, including as [`Vec::clear`], [`String::clear`], and
/// [`HashMap::clear`]. These methods drop all data stored in the collection,
/// but retain the collection's heap allocation for future use. Types such as
/// `BTreeMap`, whose `clear` methods drops allocations, should not
/// implement this trait.
///
/// When implemented for types which do not own a heap allocation, `Clear`
/// should reset the type in place if possible. If the type has an empty state
/// or stores `Option`s, those values should be reset to the empty state. For
/// "plain old data" types, which hold no pointers to other data and do not have
/// an empty or initial state, it's okay for a `Clear` implementation to be a
/// no-op. In that case, it essentially serves as a marker indicating that the
/// type may be reused to store new data.
///
