/*!
An NFA backed bounded backtracker for executing regex searches with capturing
groups.

This module provides a [`BoundedBacktracker`] that works by simulating an NFA
using the classical backtracking algorithm with a twist: it avoids redoing
work that it has done before and thereby avoids worst case exponential time.
In exchange, it can only be used on "short" haystacks. Its advantage is that
is can be faster than the [`PikeVM`](thompson::pikevm::PikeVM) in many cases
because it does less book-keeping.

/// it doesn't have to worry about copying capturing group spans for most NFA
/// states. Instead, the backtracker can maintain one set of captures (provided
/// by the caller) and never needs to copy them. In exchange, the backtracker
/// bounds itself to ensure it doesn't exhibit worst case exponential time.
/// This results in the backtracker only being able to handle short haystacks
/// given reasonable memory usage.
///
/// # Searches may return an error!
///
/// By design, this backtracking regex engine is bounded. This bound is
/// implemented by not visiting any combination of NFA state ID and position
/// in a haystack more than once. Thus, the total memory required to bound
/// backtracking is proportional to `haystack.len() * nfa.states().len()`.
/// This can obviously get quite large, since large haystacks aren't terribly
/// uncommon. To avoid using exorbitant memory, the capacity is bounded by
/// a fixed limit set via [`Config::visited_capacity`]. Thus, if the total
/// capacity required for a particular regex and a haystack exceeds this
/// capacity, then the search routine will return an error.
///
/// Unlike other regex engines that may return an error at search time (like
/// the DFA or the hybrid NFA/DFA), there is no way to guarantee that a bounded
/// backtracker will work for every haystack. Therefore, this regex engine
/// _only_ exposes fallible search routines to avoid the footgun of panicking
/// when running a search on a haystack that is too big.
///
/// If one wants to use the fallible search APIs without handling the
/// error, the only way to guarantee an error won't occur from the
/// haystack length is to ensure the haystack length does not exceed
/// [`BoundedBacktracker::max_haystack_len`].
///
/// # Example: Unicode word boundaries
///
/// This example shows that the bounded backtracker implements Unicode word
/// boundaries correctly by default.
