+// AllocationContextTracker is a thread-local object. Its main purpose is to
+// keep track of a pseudo stack of trace events. Chrome has been instrumented
+// with lots of `TRACE_EVENT` macros. These trace events push their name to a
+// thread-local stack when they go into scope, and pop when they go out of
+// scope, if all of the following conditions have been met:
+//
+// * A trace is being recorded.
+// * The category of the event is enabled in the trace config.
+// * Heap profiling is enabled (with the `--enable-heap-profiling` flag).
+//
+// This means that allocations that occur before tracing is started will not
+// have backtrace information in their context.
+//
+// AllocationContextTracker also keeps track of some thread state not related to
+// trace events. See |AllocationContext|.
+//
+// A thread-local instance of the context tracker is initialized lazily when it
+// is first accessed. This might be because a trace event pushed or popped, or
+// because `GetContextSnapshot()` was called when an allocation occurred
