/**
* A {@code Multimap} that cannot hold duplicate key-value pairs. Adding a key-value pair that's
* already in the multimap has no effect. See the {@link Multimap} documentation for information
* common to all multimaps.
*
* The {@link #get}, {@link #removeAll}, and {@link #replaceValues} methods each return a {@link
* Set} of values, while {@link #entries} returns a {@code Set} of map entries. Though the method
* signature doesn't say so explicitly, the map returned by {@link #asMap} has {@code Set} values.
*
*
If the values corresponding to a single key should be ordered according to a {@link
* java.util.Comparator} (or the natural order), see the {@link SortedSetMultimap} subinterface.
*
*
Since the value collections are sets, the behavior of a {@code SetMultimap} is not specified
* if key or value objects already present in the multimap change in a manner that affects
* {@code equals} comparisons. Use caution if mutable objects are used as keys or values in a {@code
* SetMultimap}.
*
*
Warning: Do not modify either a key or a value of a {@code SetMultimap} in a way
* that affects its {@link Object#equals} behavior. Undefined behavior and bugs will result.
*
*
See the Guava User Guide article on {@code Multimap}.
