Data Fields
uint64_t	key
	Stored key (64-bit). May use a reserved sentinel to denote an empty slot.
uint64_t	value
	Associated value payload (64-bit) stored alongside the key.

Detailed Description

Single key/value slot used internally by the open-addressing hash map.

Collision resolution strategy (implementation detail): linear or quadratic probing (see source). An empty slot is typically represented by a key sentinel (e.g. 0 or another reserved value) – callers never interact with individual kv_pair_t entries directly; they are managed through the map API.
