/** A dynamically sized associative container of JSON key/value pairs.

    This is an associative container whose elements
    are key/value pairs with unique keys.
\n
    The elements are stored contiguously; iterators are
    ordinary pointers, allowing random access pointer
    arithmetic for retrieving elements.
    In addition, the container maintains an internal
    index to speed up find operations, reducing the
    average complexity for most lookups and insertions.
\n
    Reallocations are usually costly operations in terms of
    performance, as elements are copied and the internal
    index must be rebuilt. The @ref reserve function can
    be used to eliminate reallocations if the number of
    elements is known beforehand.

    @par Allocators

    All elements stored in the container, and their
    children if any, will use the same memory resource that
    was used to construct the container.

    @par Thread Safety

    Non-const member functions may not be called
    concurrently with any other member functions.
