/**
 * Instances of this class represent a matcher that performs match
 * operations on an {@link SNIServerName} instance.
 * <P>
 * Servers can use Server Name Indication (SNI) information to decide if
 * specific {@link SSLSocket} or {@link SSLEngine} instances should accept
 * a connection.  For example, when multiple "virtual" or "name-based"
 * servers are hosted on a single underlying network address, the server
 * application can use SNI information to determine whether this server is
 * the exact server that the client wants to access.  Instances of this
 * class can be used by a server to verify the acceptable server names of
 * a particular type, such as host names.
 * <P>
 * {@code SNIMatcher} objects are immutable.  Subclasses should not provide
 * methods that can change the state of an instance once it has been created.
