                REQUIREMENTS ON total_nodes
                    - 4096 < total_nodes
                    - this is the total number of nodes that we will use in the tree

                REQUIREMENTS ON order
                    - 0 <= order
                    - this is the maximum depth-1 the tree will be allowed to go (note
                      that the root level is depth 0).

                GENERAL NOTES
                    This implementation follows more or less the implementation
                    strategy laid out by Alistair Moffat in his paper
                    Implementing the PPM data compression scheme.  Published in IEEE
                    Transactions on Communications, 38(11):1917-1921, 1990.

                    The escape method used will be method D.

                    This also uses Dmitry Shkarin's Information Inheritance scheme.
                    (described in "PPM: one step to practicality" and "Improving the
                    Efficiency of the PPM Algorithm")

                INITIAL VALUE
                    - root == pointer to an array of total_nodes nodes
                    - next_node == 1
                    - cur == root

                CONVENTION
                    - exc_used == something_is_excluded()
                    - pop() == stack[stack_size-1].n and stack[stack_size-1].nc
                    - is_excluded(symbol) == bit symbol&0x1F from exc[symbol>>5]
                    - &get_entropy_decoder() == coder
                    - root == pointer to an array of total_nodes nodes.
                      this is also the root of the tree.
                    - if (next_node < total_nodes) then
                        - next_node == the next node in root that has not yet been allocated

                    - root->next == 0
                    - root->parent_context == 0

                    - for every node in the tree:
                      {
                        - NOTATION:
                            - The "context" of a node is the string of symbols seen
                              when you go from the root of the tree down (down though
                              child context pointers) to the node, including the symbol at
                              the node itself.  (note that the context of the root node
                              is "" or the empty string)
                            - A set of nodes is in the same "context set" if all the node's
                              contexts are of length n and all the node's contexts share
                              the same prefix of length n-1.
                            - The "child context set" of a node is a set of nodes with
                              contexts that are one symbol longer and prefixed by the node's
                              context.  For example, if a node has a context "abc" then the
                              nodes for contexts "abca", "abcb", "abcc", etc. are all in
                              the child context set of the node.
                            - The "parent context" of a node is the context that is one
                              symbol shorter than the node's context and includes the
                              symbol in the node.  So the parent context of a node with
                              context "abcd" would be the context "bcd".

                        - if (next != 0) then
                            - next == pointer to the next node in the same context set
                        - if (child_context != 0) then
                            - child_context == pointer to the first node of the child
                              context set for this node.
                            - escapes > 0
                        - if (parent_context != 0) then
                            - parent_context == pointer to the parent context of this node.
                        - else
                            - this node is the root node of the tree

                        - if (this is not the root node) then
                            - symbol == the symbol represented with this node
                            - count == the number of times this symbol has been seen in its
                              parent context.
                        - else
                            - the root doesn't have a symbol.  i.e. the context for the
                              root node is "" or the empty string.

                        - total == The sum of the counts of all the nodes
                          in the child context set + escapes.
                        - escapes == the escape count for the context represented
                          by the node.
                        - count > 0
                    }

                    - cur_order < order
                    - cur_order == the depth of the node cur in the tree.
                      (note that the root node has depth 0)
                    - cur == pointer to the node in the tree who's context matches
                      the most recent symbols we have seen.
