The string is always also stored, and ref'd, in the structure in Structure::m_nameInPrevious. m_nameInPrevious is never mutated, and never cleared. The string cannot die unless the structure dies. If the structure dies, then that entry in the transition map becomes a zombie anyway and we will detect this separately. So, we don't need to use RefPtr<StringImpl>. We can just use StringImpl*. This also fixes a goof where we were getting the StringImpl's hash rather than using a pointer hash. Not only is the latter faster, but it prevents my change from leading to crashes: with my change we can have zombie keys, not just zombie values. They will exist only until the next map mutation, which will clear them. Lookups will work fine because the lookup routine will reject zombies. But it does...
