  // policy transitions into state READY, we swap it into child_policy_,
  // replacing the original child policy.  So pending_child_policy_ is
  // non-null only between when we apply an update that changes the child
  // policy name and when the new child reports state READY.
  //
  // Updates can arrive at any point during this transition.  We always
  // apply updates relative to the most recently created child policy,
  // even if the most recent one is still in pending_child_policy_.  This
  // is true both when applying the updates to an existing child policy
  // and when determining whether we need to create a new policy.
  //
  // As a result of this, there are several cases to consider here:
  //
  // 1. We have no existing child policy (i.e., this is the first update
  //    we receive after being created; in this case, both child_policy_
  //    and pending_child_policy_ are null).  In this case, we create a
  //    new child policy and store it in child_policy_.
  //
  // 2. We have an existing child policy and have no pending child policy
  //    from a previous update (i.e., either there has not been a
  //    previous update that changed the policy name, or we have already
  //    finished swapping in the new policy; in this case, child_policy_
  //    is non-null but pending_child_policy_ is null).  In this case:
  //    a. If going from the current config to the new config does not
  //       require a new policy, then we update the existing child policy.
  //    b. If going from the current config to the new config does require a
  //       new policy, we create a new policy.  The policy will be stored in
  //       pending_child_policy_ and will later be swapped into
  //       child_policy_ by the helper when the new child transitions
  //       into state READY.
  //
  // 3. We have an existing child policy and have a pending child policy
  //    from a previous update (i.e., a previous update set
  //    pending_child_policy_ as per case 2b above and that policy has
  //    not yet transitioned into state READY and been swapped into
  //    child_policy_; in this case, both child_policy_ and
  //    pending_child_policy_ are non-null).  In this case:
  //    a. If going from the current config to the new config does not
  //       require a new policy, then we update the existing pending
  //       child policy.
  //    b. If going from the current config to the new config does require a
  //       new child policy, then we create a new policy.  The new
  //       policy is stored in pending_child_policy_ (replacing the one
  //       that was there before, which will be immediately shut down)
