/// `SuffixCache` is a simple bounded hash map for caching suffix entries in
/// UTF-8 automata. For example, consider the Unicode range \u{0}-\u{FFFF}.
/// The set of byte ranges looks like this:
///
/// [0-7F]
/// [C2-DF][80-BF]
/// [E0][A0-BF][80-BF]
/// [E1-EC][80-BF][80-BF]
/// [ED][80-9F][80-BF]
/// [EE-EF][80-BF][80-BF]
///
/// Each line above translates to one alternate in the compiled regex program.
/// However, all but one of the alternates end in the same suffix, which is
/// a waste of an instruction. The suffix cache facilitates reusing them across
/// alternates.
///
/// Note that a HashMap could be trivially used for this, but we don't need its
/// overhead. Some small bounded space (LRU style) is more than enough.
///
/// This uses similar idea to [`SparseSet`](../sparse/struct.SparseSet.html),
/// except it uses hashes as original indices and then compares full keys for
/// validation against `dense` array.
