+/**
+ * How It Works
+ * 
+ * For each JSON Object, cjson maintains a linked list of zero
+ * or more lh_entry (link-hash entry) structures inside the
+ * Object's link-hash table (lh_table).
+ * 
+ * Each lh_entry structure on the JSON Object's linked list
+ * represents a single name/value pair.  The "next" field of the
+ * last lh_entry in the list is set to NULL, which terminates
+ * the list.
+ * 
+ * We represent a valid iterator that refers to an actual
+ * name/value pair via a pointer to the pair's lh_entry
+ * structure set as the iterator's opaque_ field.
+ * 
+ * We follow cjson's current pair list representation by
+ * representing a valid "end" iterator (one that refers past the
+ * last pair) with a NULL value in the iterator's opaque_ field.
+ * 
+ * A JSON Object without any pairs in it will have the "head"
+ * field of its lh_table structure set to NULL.  For such an
+ * object, json_object_iter_begin will return an iterator with
+ * the opaque_ field set to NULL, which is equivalent to the
+ * "end" iterator.
+ * 
+ * When iterating, we simply update the iterator's opaque_ field
+ * to point to the next lh_entry structure in the linked list.
+ * opaque_ will become NULL once we iterate past the last pair
+ * in the list, which makes the iterator equivalent to the "end"
+ * iterator.
