/**
 * This is the class that represents the list of known words used by
 * DictionaryBasedBreakIterator.  The conceptual data structure used
 * here is a trie: there is a node hanging off the root node for every
 * letter that can start a word.  Each of these nodes has a node hanging
 * off of it for every letter that can be the second letter of a word
 * if this node is the first letter, and so on.  The trie is represented
 * as a two-dimensional array that can be treated as a table of state
 * transitions.  Indexes are used to compress this array, taking
 * advantage of the fact that this array will always be very sparse.
