/* The general form of the hash function is

      hash (keyword) = sum (asso_values[keyword[i] + alpha_inc[i]] : i in Pos)
                       + len (keyword)

   where Pos is a set of byte positions,
   each alpha_inc[i] is a nonnegative integer,
   each asso_values[c] is a nonnegative integer,
   len (keyword) is the keyword's length if _hash_includes_len, or 0 otherwise.

   Theorem 1: If all keywords are different, there is a set Pos such that
   all tuples (keyword[i] : i in Pos) are different.

   Theorem 2: If all tuples (keyword[i] : i in Pos) are different, there
   are nonnegative integers alpha_inc[i] such that all multisets
   {keyword[i] + alpha_inc[i] : i in Pos} are different.

   Define selchars[keyword] := {keyword[i] + alpha_inc[i] : i in Pos}.

   Theorem 3: If all multisets selchars[keyword] are different, there are
   nonnegative integers asso_values[c] such that all hash values
   sum (asso_values[c] : c in selchars[keyword]) are different.

   Based on these three facts, we find the hash function in three steps:

   Step 1 (Finding good byte positions):
   Find a set Pos, as small as possible, such that all tuples
   (keyword[i] : i in Pos) are different.

   Step 2 (Finding good alpha increments):
   Find nonnegative integers alpha_inc[i], as many of them as possible being
   zero, and the others being as small as possible, such that all multisets
   {keyword[i] + alpha_inc[i] : i in Pos} are different.

   Step 3 (Finding good asso_values):
   Find asso_values[c] such that all hash (keyword) are different.

   In other words, each step finds a projection that is injective on the
   given finite set:
     proj1 : String --> Map (Pos --> N)
     proj2 : Map (Pos --> N) --> Map (Pos --> N) / S(Pos)
     proj3 : Map (Pos --> N) / S(Pos) --> N
   where
     N denotes the set of nonnegative integers,
     Map (A --> B) := Hom_Set (A, B) is the set of maps from A to B, and
     S(Pos) is the symmetric group over Pos.

   This was the theory for !_hash_includes_len; if _hash_includes_len, slight
   modifications apply:
     proj1 : String --> Map (Pos --> N) x N
     proj2 : Map (Pos --> N) x N --> Map (Pos --> N) / S(Pos) x N
     proj3 : Map (Pos --> N) / S(Pos) x N --> N

   For a case-insensitive hash function, the general form is

      hash (keyword) =
        sum (asso_values[alpha_unify[keyword[i] + alpha_inc[i]]] : i in Pos)
        + len (keyword)

   where alpha_unify[c] is chosen so that an upper/lower case change in
   keyword[i] doesn't change  alpha_unify[keyword[i] + alpha_inc[i]].

   one or more _asso_values[c].  The result of choosing one or more
   _asso_values[c] is that the partitioning of the keyword set gets
   broader.
   Look at this partitioning:  After every step, the _asso_values[] of a
   certain set C of characters are undetermined.  (At the beginning, C
   is the set of characters c with _occurrences[c] > 0.  At the end, C
   is empty.)  To each keyword K, we associate the multiset of _selchars
   for which the _asso_values[] are undetermined:
                    K  -->  K->_selchars intersect C.
   Consider two keywords equivalent if their value under this mapping is
   the same.  This introduces an equivalence relation on the set of
   keywords.  The equivalence classes partition the keyword set.  (At the
   beginning, the partition is the finest possible: each K is an equivalence
   class by itself, because all K have a different _selchars.  At the end,
   all K have been merged into a single equivalence class.)
   The partition before a step is always a refinement of the partition
   after the step.
   We choose the steps in such a way that the partition really becomes
   broader at each step.  (A step that only chooses an _asso_values[c]
   without changing the partition is better merged with the previous step,
   to avoid useless backtracking.)  */
