// READ ME FIRST:
//
// This is designed like a typical arithmetic coder API, but there's three
// twists you absolutely should be aware of before you start hacking:
//
// 1. You need to encode data in *reverse* - last symbol first. rANS works
//    like a stack: last in, first out.
// 2. Likewise, the encoder outputs bytes *in reverse* - that is, you give
//    it a pointer to the *end* of your buffer (exclusive), and it will
//    slowly move towards the beginning as more bytes are emitted.
// 3. Unlike basically any other entropy coder implementation you might
//    have used, you can interleave data from multiple independent rANS
//    encoders into the same bytestream without any extra signaling;
//    you can also just write some bytes by yourself in the middle if
//    you want to. This is in addition to the usual arithmetic encoder
//    property of being able to switch models on the fly. Writing raw
//    bytes can be useful when you have some data that you know is
//    incompressible, and is cheaper than going through the rANS encode
//    function. Using multiple rANS coders on the same byte stream wastes
//    a few bytes compared to using just one, but execution of two
//    independent encoders can happen in parallel on superscalar and
//    Out-of-Order CPUs, so this can be *much* faster in tight decoding
//    loops.
//
//    This is why all the rANS functions take the write pointer as an
//    argument instead of just storing it in some context struct.

// --------------------------------------------------------------------------

// L ('l' in the paper) is the lower bound of our normalization interval.
// Between this and our byte-aligned emission, we use 31 (not 32!) bits.
// This is done intentionally because exact reciprocals for 31-bit uints
// fit in 32-bit uints: this permits some optimizations during encoding.
