/*!
The DFA matching engine.

A DFA provides faster matching because the engine is in exactly one state at
any point in time. In the NFA, there may be multiple active states, and
considerable CPU cycles are spent shuffling them around. In finite automata
speak, the DFA follows epsilon transitions in the regex far less than the NFA.

A DFA is a classic trade off between time and space. The NFA is slower, but
its memory requirements are typically small and predictable. The DFA is faster,
but given the right regex and the right input, the number of states in the
DFA can grow exponentially. To mitigate this space problem, we do two things:

1. We implement an *online* DFA. That is, the DFA is constructed from the NFA
   during a search. When a new state is computed, it is stored in a cache so
   that it may be reused. An important consequence of this implementation
   is that states that are never reached for a particular input are never
   computed. (This is impossible in an "offline" DFA which needs to compute
   all possible states up front.)
2. If the cache gets too big, we wipe it and continue matching.

In pathological cases, a new state can be created for every byte of input.
(e.g., The regex `(a|b)*a(a|b){20}` on a long sequence of a's and b's.)
In this case, performance regresses to slightly slower than the full NFA
simulation, in large part because the cache becomes useless. If the cache
is wiped too frequently, the DFA quits and control falls back to one of the
NFA simulations.

Because of the "lazy" nature of this DFA, the inner matching loop is
considerably more complex than one might expect out of a DFA. A number of
tricks are employed to make it fast. Tread carefully.

N.B. While this implementation is heavily commented, Russ Cox's series of
articles on regexes is strongly recommended: https://swtch.com/~rsc/regexp/
(As is the DFA implementation in RE2, which heavily influenced this
implementation.)

/// `StatePtr` is a 32 bit pointer to the start of a row in the transition
/// table.
///
/// It has many special values. There are two types of special values:
/// sentinels and flags.
///
/// Sentinels corresponds to special states that carry some kind of
/// significance. There are three such states: unknown, dead and quit states.
///
/// Unknown states are states that haven't been computed yet. They indicate
/// that a transition should be filled in that points to either an existing
/// cached state or a new state altogether. In general, an unknown state means
/// "follow the NFA's epsilon transitions."
///
/// Dead states are states that can never lead to a match, no matter what
/// subsequent input is observed. This means that the DFA should quit
/// immediately and return the longest match it has found thus far.
///
/// Quit states are states that imply the DFA is not capable of matching the
/// regex correctly. Currently, this is only used when a Unicode word boundary
/// exists in the regex *and* a non-ASCII byte is observed.
///
/// The other type of state pointer is a state pointer with special flag bits.
/// There are two flags: a start flag and a match flag. The lower bits of both
/// kinds always contain a "valid" `StatePtr` (indicated by the `STATE_MAX`
/// mask).
///
/// The start flag means that the state is a start state, and therefore may be
/// subject to special prefix scanning optimizations.
///
/// The match flag means that the state is a match state, and therefore the
/// current position in the input (while searching) should be recorded.
///
/// The above exists mostly in the service of making the inner loop fast.
/// In particular, the inner *inner* loop looks something like this:
///
/// ```ignore
/// while state <= STATE_MAX and i < len(text):
///     state = state.next[i]
/// ```
///
/// This is nice because it lets us execute a lazy DFA as if it were an
/// entirely offline DFA (i.e., with very few instructions). The loop will
/// quit only when we need to examine a case that needs special attention.

        //      leads to a match), then we can quit early.

        //      can quit as soon as we know we have a match. (Full leftmost
        //      first semantics require continuing on.)
        //   4. If we're in the start state, then we can use a pre-computed set
        //      of prefix literals to skip quickly along the input.
        //   5. After the input is exhausted, we run the DFA on one symbol
        //      that stands for EOF. This is useful for handling empty width
        //      assertions.
        //   6. We can't actually do state.next[byte]. Instead, we have to do
        //      state.next[byte_classes[byte]], which permits us to keep the
        //      'next' list very small.
        //
