Store information about any JS value in a side channel, using a Map.

Warning: if the `key` is an object, this implementation will leak memory until you `delete` it.
Use [`side-channel`](https://npmjs.com/side-channel) for the best available strategy.

## Getting started

```sh
npm install --save side-channel-map
```

## Usage/Examples

```js
const assert = require('assert');
const getSideChannelMap = require('side-channel-map');

const channel = getSideChannelMap();

const key = {};
assert.equal(channel.has(key), false);
assert.throws(() => channel.assert(key), TypeError);

channel.set(key, 42);

channel.assert(key); // does not throw
assert.equal(channel.has(key), true);
assert.equal(channel.get(key), 42);

channel.delete(key);
assert.equal(channel.has(key), false);
assert.throws(() => channel.assert(key), TypeError);
```
