Per object mutexes may come with significant memory cost while a
global mutex can suffer from unnecessary contention. A sharded mutex
is a compromise where objects are hashed and then a particular mutex
for the hash of the object used. Contention can be controlled by the
number of shards.
v2. Use hashmap.h's hash_bits in case of contention from alignment of
objects.
