Function removeentry

third-party/lua-5.3.5/src/lgc.c:125–129

** If key is not marked, mark its entry as dead. This allows key to be ** collected, but keeps its entry in the table. A dead node is needed ** when Lua looks up for a key (it may be part of a chain) and when ** traversing a weak table (key might be removed from the table during ** traversal). Other places never manipulate dead keys, because its ** associated nil value is enough to signal that th

** empty.
