This PR outlines a solution for making immutable maps `@ValueBased` by removing cacheing of certain values in `AbstractMap`.
By removing these caching fields in `AbstractMap`, we can make the immutable maps `@ValueBased` and at the same time, performance is likely improved because the JVM is probably able to optimize away object creation anyway via escape analysis. Also, all maps will occupy less space as we get rid of a number of objects and references stored for each map.
We need to benchmark this solution to better understand its implications.
