   mappings from external strtab offsets to names, so we can look them up
   with ctf_strptr().  Only external strtab offsets with references are
   added.

   As a side effect, replaces the strtab of the current dict with the newly-
   generated strtab.  This is an exception to the general rule that
   serialization does not change the dict passed in, because the alternative
   is to copy the entire atoms table on every reserialization just to avoid
   modifying the original, which is excessively costly for minimal gain.

   We use the lazy man's approach and double memory costs by always storing
   atoms as individually allocated entities whenever they come from anywhere
   but a freshly-opened, mmapped dict, even though after serialization there
   is another copy in the strtab; this ensures that ctf_strptr()-returned
   pointers to them remain valid for the lifetime of the dict.

   This is all rendered more complex because if a dict is ctf_open()ed it
   will have a bunch of strings in its strtab already, and their strtab
   offsets can never change (without piles of complexity to rescan the
   entire dict just to get all the offsets to all of them into the atoms
   table).  Entries below the existing strtab limit are just copied into the
   new dict: entries above it are new, and are are sorted first, then
   appended to it.  The sorting is purely a compression-efficiency
   improvement, and we get nearly as good an improvement from sorting big
   chunks like this as we would from sorting the whole thing.  */
