 *
 *   rx:     the regex to match against
 *   sv:     the SV being matched: only used for utf8 flag; the string
 *           itself is accessed via the pointers below. Note that on
 *           something like an overloaded SV, SvPOK(sv) may be false
 *           and the string pointers may point to something unrelated to
 *           the SV itself.
 *   strbeg: real beginning of string
 *   strpos: the point in the string at which to begin matching
 *   strend: pointer to the byte following the last char of the string
 *   flags   currently unused; set to 0
 *   data:   currently unused; set to NULL
 *
 * The basic idea of re_intuit_start() is to use some known information
 * about the pattern, namely:
 *
 *   a) the longest known anchored substring (i.e. one that's at a
 *      constant offset from the beginning of the pattern; but not
 *      necessarily at a fixed offset from the beginning of the
 *      string);
 *   b) the longest floating substring (i.e. one that's not at a constant
 *      offset from the beginning of the pattern);
 *   c) Whether the pattern is anchored to the string; either
 *      an absolute anchor: /^../, or anchored to \n: /^.../m,
 *      or anchored to pos(): /\G/;
 *   d) A start class: a real or synthetic character class which
 *      represents which characters are legal at the start of the pattern;
 *
 * to either quickly reject the match, or to find the earliest position
 * within the string at which the pattern might match, thus avoiding
 * running the full NFA engine at those earlier locations, only to
 * eventually fail and retry further along.
 *
 * Returns NULL if the pattern can't match, or returns the address within
 * the string which is the earliest place the match could occur.
 *
 * The longest of the anchored and floating substrings is called 'check'
 * and is checked first. The other is called 'other' and is checked
 * second. The 'other' substring may not be present.  For example,
 *
 *    /(abc|xyz)ABC\d{0,3}DEFG/
 *
 * will have
 *
 *   check substr (float)    = "DEFG", offset 6..9 chars
 *   other substr (anchored) = "ABC",  offset 3..3 chars
 *   stclass = [ax]
 *
 * Be aware that during the course of this function, sometimes 'anchored'
 * refers to a substring being anchored relative to the start of the
 * pattern, and sometimes to the pattern itself being anchored relative to
 * the string. For example:
 *
 *   /\dabc/:   "abc" is anchored to the pattern;
 *   /^\dabc/:  "abc" is anchored to the pattern and the string;
 *   /\d+abc/:  "abc" is anchored to neither the pattern nor the string;
 *   /^\d+abc/: "abc" is anchored to neither the pattern nor the string,
 *                    but the pattern is anchored to the string.

/* The three macros below are slightly different versions of the same logic.
 *
 * The first is for /a and /aa when the target string is UTF-8.  This can only
 * match ascii, but it must advance based on UTF-8.   The other two handle the
 * non-UTF-8 and the more generic UTF-8 cases.   In all three, we are looking
 * for the boundary (or non-boundary) between a word and non-word character.
 * The utf8 and non-utf8 cases have the same logic, but the details must be
 * different.  Find the "wordness" of the character just prior to this one, and
 * compare it with the wordness of this one.  If they differ, we have a
 * boundary.  At the beginning of the string, pretend that the previous
 * character was a new-line.
 *
 * All these macros uncleanly have side-effects with each other and outside
 * variables.  So far it's been too much trouble to clean-up
 *
 * TEST_NON_UTF8 is the macro or function to call to test if its byte input is
 *               a word character or not.
 * IF_SUCCESS    is code to do if it finds that we are at a boundary between
 *               word/non-word
 * IF_FAIL       is code to do if we aren't at a boundary between word/non-word
 *
 * Exactly one of the two IF_FOO parameters is a no-op, depending on whether we
 * are looking for a boundary or for a non-boundary.  If we are looking for a
 * boundary, we want IF_FAIL to be the no-op, and for IF_SUCCESS to go out and
 * see if this tentative match actually works, and if so, to quit the loop
 * here.  And vice-versa if we are looking for a non-boundary.
 *
 * 'tmp' below in the next three macros in the REXEC_FBC_SCAN and
 * REXEC_FBC_UTF8_SCAN loops is a loop invariant, a bool giving the return of
 * TEST_NON_UTF8(s-1).  To see this, note that that's what it is defined to be
 * at entry to the loop, and to get to the IF_FAIL branch, tmp must equal
 * TEST_NON_UTF8(s), and in the opposite branch, IF_SUCCESS, tmp is that
 * complement.  But in that branch we complement tmp, meaning that at the
 * bottom of the loop tmp is always going to be equal to TEST_NON_UTF8(s),
 * which means at the top of the loop in the next iteration, it is
 * TEST_NON_UTF8(s-1) */

               The basic idea being that we use AC as long as we are dealing
               with a possible matching char, when we encounter an unknown char
               (and we have not encountered an accepting state) we scan forward
               until we find a legal starting char.
               AC matching is basically that of trie matching, except that when
               we encounter a failing transition, we fall back to the current
               states "fail state", and try the current char again, a process
               we repeat until we reach the root state, state 1, or a legal
               transition. If we fail on the root state then we can either
               terminate if we have reached an accepting state previously, or
               restart the entire process from the beginning if we have not.

/*

regmatch() - main matching routine

This is basically one big switch statement in a loop. We execute an op,
set 'next' to point the next op, and continue. If we come to a point which
we may need to backtrack to on failure such as (A|B|C), we push a
backtrack state onto the backtrack stack. On failure, we pop the top
state, and re-enter the loop at the state indicated. If there are no more
states to pop, we return failure.

Sometimes we also need to backtrack on success; for example /A+/, where
after successfully matching one A, we need to go back and try to
match another one; similarly for lookahead assertions: if the assertion
completes successfully, we backtrack to the state just before the assertion
and then carry on.  In these cases, the pushed state is marked as
'backtrack on success too'. This marking is in fact done by a chain of
pointers, each pointing to the previous 'yes' state. On success, we pop to
the nearest yes state, discarding any intermediate failure-only states.
Sometimes a yes state is pushed just to force some cleanup code to be
called at the end of a successful match or submatch; e.g. (??{$re}) uses
it to free the inner regex.

Note that failure backtracking rewinds the cursor position, while
success backtracking leaves it alone.

A pattern is complete when the END op is executed, while a subpattern
such as (?=foo) is complete when the SUCCESS op is executed. Both of these
ops trigger the "pop to last yes state if any, otherwise return true"
behaviour.

A common convention in this function is to use A and B to refer to the two
subpatterns (or to the first nodes thereof) in patterns like /A*B/: so A is
the subpattern to be matched possibly multiple times, while B is the entire
rest of the pattern. Variable and state names reflect this convention.

The states in the main switch are the union of ops and failure/success of
substates associated with with that op.  For example, IFMATCH is the op
that does lookahead assertions /(?=A)B/ and so the IFMATCH state means
'execute IFMATCH'; while IFMATCH_A is a state saying that we have just
successfully matched A and IFMATCH_A_fail is a state saying that we have
just failed to match A. Resume states always come in pairs. The backtrack
state we push is marked as 'IFMATCH_A', but when that is popped, we resume
at IFMATCH_A or IFMATCH_A_fail, depending on whether we are backtracking
on success or failure.

The struct that holds a backtracking state is actually a big union, with
one variant for each major type of op. The variable st points to the
top-most backtrack struct. To make the code clearer, within each
block of code we #define ST to alias the relevant union.

Here's a concrete example of a (vastly oversimplified) IFMATCH
implementation:

    switch (state) {
    ....

#define ST st->u.ifmatch

    case IFMATCH: // we are executing the IFMATCH op, (?=A)B
	ST.foo = ...; // some state we wish to save
	...
	// push a yes backtrack state with a resume value of
	// IFMATCH_A/IFMATCH_A_fail, then continue execution at the
	// first node of A:
	PUSH_YES_STATE_GOTO(IFMATCH_A, A, newinput);
	// NOTREACHED

    case IFMATCH_A: // we have successfully executed A; now continue with B
	next = B;
	bar = ST.foo; // do something with the preserved value
	break;

    case IFMATCH_A_fail: // A failed, so the assertion failed
	...;   // do some housekeeping, then ...
	sayNO; // propagate the failure

#undef ST

    ...
    }

For any old-timers reading this who are familiar with the old recursive
approach, the code above is equivalent to:

    case IFMATCH: // we are executing the IFMATCH op, (?=A)B
    {
	int foo = ...
	...
	if (regmatch(A)) {
	    next = B;
	    bar = foo;
	    break;
	}
	...;   // do some housekeeping, then ...
	sayNO; // propagate the failure
    }

The topmost backtrack state, pointed to by st, is usually free. If you
want to claim it, populate any ST.foo fields in it with values you wish to
save, then do one of

	PUSH_STATE_GOTO(resume_state, node, newinput);
	PUSH_YES_STATE_GOTO(resume_state, node, newinput);

which sets that backtrack state's resume value to 'resume_state', pushes a
new free entry to the top of the backtrack stack, then goes to 'node'.
On backtracking, the free slot is popped, and the saved state becomes the
new free state. An ST.foo field in this new top state can be temporarily
accessed to retrieve values, but once the main loop is re-entered, it
becomes available for reuse.

Note that the depth of the backtrack stack constantly increases during the
left-to-right execution of the pattern, rather than going up and down with
the pattern nesting. For example the stack is at its maximum at Z at the
end of the pattern, rather than at X in the following:

    /(((X)+)+)+....(Y)+....Z/

The only exceptions to this are lookahead/behind assertions and the cut,
(?>A), which pop all the backtrack states associated with A before
continuing.
 
Backtrack state structs are allocated in slabs of about 4K in size.
PL_regmatch_state and st always point to the currently active state,
and PL_regmatch_slab points to the slab currently containing
PL_regmatch_state.  The first time regmatch() is called, the first slab is
allocated, and is never freed until interpreter destruction. When the slab
is full, a new one is allocated and chained to the end. At exit from
regmatch(), slabs allocated since entry are freed.
