7/// Space Function Table (SFT).
8///
9/// This trait captures functions that reflect _space-specific per-object
10/// semantics_. These functions are implemented for each object via a special
11/// space-based dynamic dispatch mechanism where the semantics are _not_
12/// determined by the object's _type_, but rather, are determined by the _space_
13/// that the object is in.
14///
15/// The underlying mechanism exploits the fact that spaces use the address space
16/// at an MMTk chunk granularity with the consequence that each chunk maps to
17/// exactluy one space, so knowing the chunk for an object reveals its space.
18/// The dispatch then works by performing simple address arithmetic on the object
19/// reference to find a chunk index which is used to index a table which returns
20/// the space. The relevant function is then dispatched against that space
21/// object.
22///
23/// We use the SFT trait to simplify typing for Rust, so our table is a
24/// table of SFT rather than Space.
