  /**
   * A {@code Map} implementation that stores data in simple fields until
   * the size is greater than 3.
   * <p>
   * This map is designed for performance and can outstrip HashMap.
   * It also has good garbage collection characteristics.
   * </p>
   * <ul>
   * <li>Optimised for operation at size 3 or less.
   * <li>Still works well once size 3 exceeded.
   * <li>Gets at size 3 or less are about 0-10% faster than HashMap,
   * <li>Puts at size 3 or less are over 4 times faster than HashMap.
   * <li>Performance 5% slower than HashMap once size 3 exceeded once.
   * </ul>
   * <p>
   * The design uses two distinct modes of operation - flat and delegate.
   * While the map is size 3 or less, operations map straight onto fields using
   * switch statements. Once size 4 is reached, the map switches to delegate mode
   * and only switches back when cleared. In delegate mode, all operations are
   * forwarded straight to a HashMap resulting in the 5% performance loss.
   * </p>
   * <p>
   * The performance gains on puts are due to not needing to create a Map Entry
   * object. This is a large saving not only in performance but in garbage collection.
   * </p>
   * <p>
   * Whilst in flat mode this map is also easy for the garbage collector to dispatch.
   * This is because it contains no complex objects or arrays which slow the progress.
   * </p>
   * <p>
   * Do not use {@code Flat3Map} if the size is likely to grow beyond 3.
   * </p>
   * <p>
   * <strong>Note that Flat3Map is not synchronized and is not thread-safe.</strong>
   * If you wish to use this map from multiple threads concurrently, you must use
   * appropriate synchronization. The simplest approach is to wrap this map
   * using {@link java.util.Collections#synchronizedMap(Map)}. This class may throw
   * exceptions when accessed by concurrent threads without synchronization.
   * </p>
   *
   * @param <K> the type of the keys in this map
   * @param <V> the type of the values in this map
   * @since 3.0
