/// A state identifier specifically tailored for lazy DFAs.
///
/// A lazy state ID logically represents a pointer to a DFA state. In practice,
/// by limiting the number of DFA states it can address, it reserves some
/// bits of its representation to encode some additional information. That
/// additional information is called a "tag." That tag is used to record
/// whether the state it points to is an unknown, dead, quit, start or match
/// state.
///
/// When implementing a low level search routine with a lazy DFA, it is
/// necessary to query the type of the current state to know what to do:
///
/// * **Unknown** - The state has not yet been computed. The
/// parameters used to get this state ID must be re-passed to
/// [`DFA::next_state`](crate::hybrid::dfa::DFA::next_state), which will never
/// return an unknown state ID.
/// * **Dead** - A dead state only has transitions to itself. It indicates that
/// the search cannot do anything else and should stop with whatever result it
/// has.
/// * **Quit** - A quit state indicates that the automaton could not answer
/// whether a match exists or not. Correct search implementations must return a
/// [`MatchError::quit`](crate::MatchError::quit) when a DFA enters a quit
/// state.
/// * **Start** - A start state is a state in which a search can begin.
/// Lazy DFAs usually have more than one start state. Branching on
/// this isn't required for correctness, but a common optimization is
/// to run a prefilter when a search enters a start state. Note that
/// start states are *not* tagged automatically, and one must enable the
/// [`Config::specialize_start_states`](crate::hybrid::dfa::Config::specialize_start_states)
/// setting for start states to be tagged. The reason for this is
/// that a DFA search loop is usually written to execute a prefilter once it
/// enters a start state. But if there is no prefilter, this handling can be
/// quite diastrous as the DFA may ping-pong between the special handling code
/// and a possible optimized hot path for handling untagged states. When start
/// states aren't specialized, then they are untagged and remain in the hot
/// path.
/// * **Match** - A match state indicates that a match has been found.
/// Depending on the semantics of your search implementation, it may either
/// continue until the end of the haystack or a dead state, or it might quit
/// and return the match immediately.
///
/// As an optimization, the [`is_tagged`](LazyStateID::is_tagged) predicate
/// can be used to determine if a tag exists at all. This is useful to avoid
/// branching on all of the above types for every byte searched.
///
/// # Example
///
/// This example shows how `LazyStateID` can be used to implement a correct
/// search routine with minimal branching. In particular, this search routine
/// implements "leftmost" matching, which means that it doesn't immediately
/// stop once a match is found. Instead, it continues until it reaches a dead
/// state.
///
/// Notice also how a correct search implementation deals with
/// [`CacheError`](crate::hybrid::CacheError)s returned by some of
/// the lazy DFA routines. When a `CacheError` occurs, it returns
/// [`MatchError::gave_up`](crate::MatchError::gave_up).
///
/// ```

/// // initial bytes of the haystack. Note that start states can never
/// // be match states (since DFAs in this crate delay matches by 1

/// &Input::new(haystack),

/// // Walk all the bytes in the haystack. We can quit early if we see

/// // should return the match instead of an error.

/// }
/// return Err(MatchError::quit(b, i));
/// }
/// // Implementors may also want to check for start states and
/// // handle them differently for performance reasons. But it is
/// // not necessary for correctness. Note that in order to check
/// // for start states, you'll need to enable the
/// // 'specialize_start_states' config knob, otherwise start

/// dfa.match_pattern(cache, sid, 0),

/// ));
/// }
/// Ok(last_match)
/// }
///
/// // We use a greedy '+' operator to show how the search doesn't just stop
/// // once a match is detected. It continues extending the match. Using

/// // Here's another example that tests our handling of the special
/// // EOI transition. This will fail to find a match if we don't call
