/**
* A constraint on the keys and values that may be added to a {@code Map} or
* {@code Multimap}. For example, {@link MapConstraints#notNull()}, which
* prevents a map from including any null keys or values, could be implemented
* like this: {@code
*
* public void checkKeyValue(Object key, Object value) {
* if (key == null || value == null) {
* throw new NullPointerException();
* }
* }}
*
* In order to be effective, constraints should be deterministic; that is, they
* should not depend on state that can change (such as external state, random
* variables, and time) and should only depend on the value of the passed-in key
* and value. A non-deterministic constraint cannot reliably enforce that all
* the collection's elements meet the constraint, since the constraint is only
* enforced when elements are added.

* @deprecated Use {@link Preconditions} for basic checks. In place of
* constrained maps, we encourage you to check your preconditions
* explicitly instead of leaving that work to the map implementation.
* For the specific case of rejecting null, consider {@link ImmutableMap}.
* This class is scheduled for removal in Guava 20.0.
