+Clears any placeholders from a hash. If a restricted hash has any of its keys
+marked as readonly and the key is subsequently deleted, the key is not actually
+deleted but is marked by assigning it a value of &PL_sv_placeholder. This tags

+future point. This function clears any such placeholder keys from the hash.
