//
// A default constructed object performs a no-op (and returns a default
// constructed object) if no hook has been registered.
//
// Hooks can be pre-registered via constant initialization, for example:
//
// ABSL_INTERNAL_ATOMIC_HOOK_ATTRIBUTES static AtomicHook<void(*)()>
//     my_hook(DefaultAction);
//
// and then changed at runtime via a call to `Store()`.
