/**
* A context for scoping the lifetime of foreign objects.
*
* The need for this mechanism is best explained with an example. When folding a GETFIELD bytecode
* denoting a {@code final static} non-primitive field, libgraal can create a {@link JavaConstant}
* wrapping a handle to the field's value in the HotSpot heap. This handle must be released before
* HotSpot can reclaim the object it references. Performing a compilation in the scope of a
* {@linkplain HotSpotGraalServices#openLocalCompilationContext local} context ensures the handle is
* released once the compilation completes, allowing the HotSpot GC to subsequently reclaim the
* HotSpot object. When libgraal creates data structures that outlive a single compilation and may
* contain foreign object references (e.g. snippet graphs), it must enter the
* {@linkplain HotSpotGraalServices#enterGlobalCompilationContext global} context. Foreign object
* handles created in the global context are only released once their {@link JavaConstant} wrappers
* are reclaimed by the libgraal GC.
*
* {@link CompilationContext}s have no impact on {@link JavaConstant}s that do not encapsulate a
* foreign object reference.
*
* The object returned by {@link HotSpotGraalServices#enterGlobalCompilationContext} or
* {@link HotSpotGraalServices#openLocalCompilationContext} should be used in a try-with-resources
* statement. Failure to close a context will almost certainly result in foreign objects being
* leaked.
