/*
 * The string info map is an efficient data structure designed to be
 * used with a small set of items.  It is used by GSettings schemas for
 * three purposes:
 *
 *  1) Implement <choices> with a list of valid strings
 *
 *  2) Implement <alias> by mapping one string to another
 *
 *  3) Implement enumerated types by mapping strings to integer values
 *     (and back).
 *
 * The map is made out of an array of uint32s.  Each entry in the array
 * is an integer value, followed by a specially formatted string value:
 *
 *   The string starts with the byte 0xff or 0xfe, followed by the
 *   content of the string, followed by a nul byte, followed by
 *   additional nul bytes for padding, followed by a 0xff byte.
 *
 *   Padding is added so that the entire formatted string takes up a
 *   multiple of 4 bytes, and not less than 8 bytes.  The requirement
 *   for a string to take up 8 bytes is so that the scanner doesn't lose
 *   synch and mistake a string for an integer value.
 *
 * The first byte of the formatted string depends on if the integer is
 * an enum value (0xff) or an alias (0xfe).  If it is an alias then the
 * number refers to the word offset within the info map at which the
 * integer corresponding to the "target" value is stored.
 *
 * For example, consider the case of the string info map representing an
 * enumerated type of 'foo' (value 1) and 'bar' (value 2) and 'baz'
 * (alias for 'bar').  Note that string info maps are always little
 * endian.
 *
 * x01 x00 x00 x00   xff 'f' 'o' 'o'   x00 x00 x00 xff   x02 x00 x00 x00
 * xff 'b' 'a' 'r'   x00 x00 x00 xff   x03 x00 x00 x00   xfe 'b' 'a' 'z'
 * x00 x00 x00 xff
 *
 *
 * The operations that someone may want to perform with the map:
 *
 *   - look up if a string is valid (and not an alias)
 *   - look up the integer value for a enum 'nick'
 *   - look up the integer value for the target of an alias
 *   - look up an alias and convert it to its target string
 *   - look up the enum nick for a given value
 *
 * In order to look up if a string is valid, it is padded on either side
 * (as described) and scanned for in the array.  For example, you might
 * look for "foo":
 *
 *                   xff 'f' 'o' 'o'   x00 x00 x00 xff
 *
 * In order to look up the integer value for a nick, the string is padded
 * on either side and scanned for in the array, as above.  Instead of
 * merely succeeding, we look at the integer value to the left of the
 * match.  This is the enum value.
 *
 * In order to look up an alias and convert it to its target enum value,
 * the string is padded on either side (as described, with 0xfe) and
 * scanned for.  For example, you might look for "baz":
 *
 *                   xfe 'b' 'a' 'z'  x00 x00 x00 xff
 *
 * The integer immediately preceding the match then contains the offset
 * of the integer value of the target.  In our example, that's '3'.
 * This index is dereferenced to find the enum value of '2'.
 *
 * To convert the alias to its target string, 5 bytes just need to be
 * added past the start of the integer value to find the start of the
 * string.
 *
 * To look up the enum nick for a given value, the value is searched for
 * in the array.  To ensure that the value isn't matching the inside of a
 * string, we must check that it is either the first item in the array or
 * immediately preceded by the byte 0xff.  It must also be immediately
 * followed by the byte 0xff.
 *
 * Because strings always take up a minimum of 2 words, because 0xff or
 * 0xfe never appear inside of a utf-8 string and because no two integer
 * values ever appear in sequence, the only way we can have the
 * sequence:
 *
 *     xff __ __ __ __ xff (or 0xfe)
 *
 * is in the event of an integer nested between two strings.
 *
 * For implementation simplicity/efficiency, strings may not be more
 * than 65 characters in length (ie: 17 32bit words after padding).
 *
 * In the event that we are doing <choices> (ie: not an enum type) then
 * the value of each choice is set to zero and ignored.
