/**
 * Helper class for stubbing out variables and object properties for unit tests.
 * This class can change the value of some variables before running the test
 * cases, and to reset them in the tearDown phase.
 * See googletest.StubOutForTesting as an analogy in Python:
 * http://protobuf.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/python/stubout.py
 *
 * Example usage:
 * <pre>var stubs = new goog.testing.PropertyReplacer();
 *
 * function setUp() {
 *   // Mock functions used in all test cases.
 *   stubs.set(Math, 'random', function() {
 *     return 4;  // Chosen by fair dice roll. Guaranteed to be random.
 *   });
 * }
 *
 * function tearDown() {
 *   stubs.reset();
 * }
 *
 * function testThreeDice() {
 *   // Mock a constant used only in this test case.
 *   stubs.set(goog.global, 'DICE_COUNT', 3);
 *   assertEquals(12, rollAllDice());
 * }</pre>
 *
 * Constraints on altered objects:
 * <ul>
 *   <li>DOM subclasses aren't supported.
 *   <li>The value of the objects' constructor property must either be equal to
 *       the real constructor or kept untouched.
 * </ul>
