Details

The new function PL_HashTableLookupConst is not documented.
In particular, we need to add a warning that PL_HashTableLookup must not be called from a PLHashEnumerator callback function. PL_HashTableLookup reorders the hash entries to speed up future lookups, which screws up the hash table enumeration. If one needs to look up hash entries from a PLHashEnumerator callback function, PL_HashTableLookupConst should be used instead.
