/** \class OneWayEquivalencyTable
 * \brief Hash table to manage integral label equivalencies that are order dependent.
 *
 * OneWayEquivalencyTable is a variation on itk::EquivalencyTable that
 * preserves the order of equivalencies.  For example, the entries { 5
 * = 4 } and {4 = 5} are not equivalent in this table, yet are the
 * treated as the same entry in EquivalencyTable.  Because of the
 * one-way logic of the table, reflexive equivalencies will result in
 * cycling from recursive lookups or flattening of the table.  The
 * responsibility is on the user for preventing recursive cycling.
