// A data structure for fast substring queries.
//
// Suffix trees represent the suffixes of their input strings in their leaves.
// A suffix tree is a type of compressed trie structure where each node
// represents an entire substring rather than a single character. Each leaf
// of the tree is a suffix.
//
// A suffix tree can be seen as a type of state machine where each state is a
// substring of the full string. The tree is structured so that, for a string
// of length N, there are exactly N leaves in the tree. This structure allows
// us to quickly find repeated substrings of the input string.
//
// In this implementation, a "string" is a vector of unsigned integers.
// These integers may result from hashing some data type. A suffix tree can
// contain 1 or many strings, which can then be queried as one large string.
//
// The suffix tree is implemented using Ukkonen's algorithm for linear-time
// suffix tree construction. Ukkonen's algorithm is explained in more detail
// in the paper by Esko Ukkonen "On-line construction of suffix trees. The
// paper is available at
//
// https://www.cs.helsinki.fi/u/ukkonen/SuffixT1withFigs.pdf
