/*
 * The three forms of NS_NewAtom and do_GetAtom (for use with
 * |nsCOMPtr<nsIAtom>|) return the atom for the string given.  At any
 * given time there will always be one atom representing a given string.
 * Atoms are intended to make string comparison cheaper by simplifying
 * it to pointer equality.  A pointer to the atom that does not own a
 * reference is not guaranteed to be valid.
 *
 * The three forms of NS_NewPermanentAtom and do_GetPermanentAtom return
 * the atom for the given string and ensure that the atom is permanent.
 * An atom that is permanent will exist (occupy space at a specific
 * location in memory) until XPCOM is shut down.  The advantage of
 * permanent atoms is that they do not need to maintain a reference
 * count, which requires locking and hurts performance.
