/**
     * Removes an entry from within a table. All entries following the removed node can stay, but
     * all preceding ones need to be cloned.
     *
     * <p>This method does not decrement count for the removed entry, but does decrement count for
     * all partially collected entries which are skipped. As such callers which are modifying count
     * must re-read it after calling removeFromChain.
