/// @brief      A read-only Dart heap snapshot, or, read-executable mapping of
///             AOT compiled Dart code.
///
///             To make Dart code startup more performant, the Flutter tools on
///             the host snapshot the state of the Dart heap at specific points
///             and package the same with the Flutter application. When the Dart
///             VM on the target is configured to run AOT compiled Dart code,
///             the tools also compile the developer's Flutter application code
///             to target specific machine code (instructions). This class deals
///             with the mapping of both these buffers at runtime on the target.
///
///             A Flutter application typically needs two instances of this
///             class at runtime to run Dart code. One instance is for the VM
///             and is called the "core snapshot". The other is the isolate
///             and called the "isolate snapshot". Different root isolates can
///             be launched with different isolate snapshots.
///
///             These snapshots are typically memory-mapped at runtime, or,
///             referenced directly as symbols present in Mach or ELF binaries.
///
///             In the case of the core snapshot, the snapshot is collected when
///             the VM shuts down. The isolate snapshot is collected when the
///             isolate group shuts down.
