// backtrack is a regular expression search with submatch
// tracking for small regular expressions and texts. It allocates

// to make sure it never explores the same (character position, instruction)
// state multiple times. This limits the search to run in time linear in
// the length of the test.
//
// backtrack is a fast replacement for the NFA code on small
// regexps when onepass cannot be used.
