/**
* An entry represents a key and a default value for the configuration. By using an entry object,
* multiple parts of the code can fetch the same configuration without duplication or accidental
* variation in default value. Clients define the key and default value together, rather than just
* the key.
*/
/*
* API note: the default value is not available through the public interface in order to prevent
* clients from accidentally using the default value instead of the configuration value.
*
* Implementation note: although primitives would be nice, Objects don't increase memory usage much.
* The autoboxing cache solves Booleans, and Strings are already objects, so that just leaves Integers.
* Overall the number of Integer configuration entries is expected to be low compared to Booleans,
* and perhaps many Integer values will also fit within the autoboxing cache.
