/**
 * This class has the job of constructing a RuleBasedBreakIterator from a
 * textual description. A Builder is constructed by GenerateBreakIteratorData,
 * which uses it to construct the iterator itself and then throws it away.
 * <p>The construction logic is separated out into its own class for two primary
 * reasons:
 * <ul>
 * <li>The construction logic is quite sophisticated and large. Separating
 * it out into its own class means the code must only be loaded into memory
 * while a RuleBasedBreakIterator is being constructed, and can be purged after
 * that.
 * <li>There is a fair amount of state that must be maintained throughout the
 * construction process that is not needed by the iterator after construction.
 * Separating this state out into another class prevents all of the functions
 * that construct the iterator from having to have really long parameter lists,
 * (hopefully) contributing to readability and maintainability.
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * It'd be really nice if this could be an independent class rather than an
 * inner class, because that would shorten the source file considerably, but
 * making Builder an inner class of RuleBasedBreakIterator allows it direct
 * access to RuleBasedBreakIterator's private members, which saves us from
 * having to provide some kind of "back door" to the Builder class that could
 * then also be used by other classes.

        //   from the input string.  For each group, you create a state and point
        //   the appropriate entries in the previous state to it.  This produces a
        //   straight line from the start state to the end state.  The {}, *, and (|)
        //   idioms produce branches in this straight line.  These branches (states
        //   that can transition to more than one other state) are called "decision
        //   points."  A list of decision points is kept.  This contains a list of
        //   all states that can transition to the next state to be created.  For a
        //   straight line progression, the only thing in the decision-point list is
        //   the current state.  But if there's a branch, the decision-point list
        //   will contain all of the beginning points of the branch when the next
        //   state to be created represents the end point of the branch.  A stack is
        //   used to save decision point lists in the presence of nested parentheses
        //   and the like.  For example, when a { is encountered, the current decision
        //   point list is saved on the stack and restored when the corresponding }
        //   is encountered.  This way, after the } is read, the decision point list
        //   will contain both the state right before the } _and_ the state before
        //   the whole {} expression.  Both of these states can transition to the next
        //   state after the {} expression.
        //   - one complication arises when we have to stamp a transition value into
        //   an array cell that already contains one.  The updateStateTable() and
        //   mergeStates() functions handle this case.  Their basic approach is to
        //   create a new state that combines the two states that conflict and point
        //   at it when necessary.  This happens recursively, so if the merged states
        //   also conflict, they're resolved in the same way, and so on.  There are
        //   a number of tests aimed at preventing infinite recursion.
        //   - another complication arises with repeating characters.  It's somewhat
        //   ambiguous whether the user wants a greedy or non-greedy match in these cases.
        //   (e.g., whether "[a-z]*abc" means the SHORTEST sequence of letters ending in
        //   "abc" or the LONGEST sequence of letters ending in "abc".  We've adopted
        //   the *? to mean "shortest" and * by itself to mean "longest".  (You get the
        //   same result with both if there's no overlap between the repeating character
        //   group and the group immediately following it.)  Handling the *? token is
        //   rather complicated and involves keeping track of whether a state needs to
        //   be merged (as described above) or merely overwritten when you update one of
        //   its cells, and copying the contents of a state that loops with a *? token
        //   into some of the states that follow it after the rest of the table-building
        //   process is complete ("backfilling").
        // implementation notes:
        //   - This function assumes syntax checking has been performed on the input string
        //   prior to its being passed in here.  It assumes that parentheses are
        //   balanced, all literal characters are enclosed in [] and turned into category
        //   numbers, that there are no illegal characters or character sequences, and so
        //   on.  Violation of these invariants will lead to undefined behavior.
        //   - It'd probably be better to use linked lists rather than Vector and Stack
        //   to maintain the decision point list and stack.  I went for simplicity in
        //   this initial implementation.  If performance is critical enough, we can go
        //   back and fix this later.
        //   -There are a number of important limitations on the *? token.  It does not work
        //   right when followed by a repeating character sequence (e.g., ".*?(abc)*")
        //   (although it does work right when followed by a single repeating character).
        //   It will not always work right when nested in parentheses or braces (although
        //   sometimes it will).  It also will not work right if the group of repeating
        //   characters and the group of characters that follows overlap partially
        //   (e.g., "[a-g]*?[e-j]").  None of these capabilites was deemed necessary for
        //   describing breaking rules we know about, so we left them out for
        //   expeditiousness.
        //   - Rules such as "[a-z]*?abc;" will be treated the same as "[a-z]*?aa*bc;"--
        //   that is, if the string ends in "aaaabc", the break will go before the first
        //   "a" rather than the last one.  Both of these are limitations in the design
        //   of RuleBasedBreakIterator and not limitations of the rule parser.
