<p>Octal syntax is a little-known way of uttering Unicode codepoints in
a regular expression. For example, <code>a</code>, <code>\x61</code>, <code>\u0061</code> and
<code>\141</code> are all equivalent regular expressions, where the last example
shows octal syntax.</p>
<p>While supporting octal syntax isn't in and of itself a problem, it does
make good error messages harder. That is, in PCRE based regex engines,
syntax like <code>\0</code> invokes a backreference, which is explicitly
unsupported in Rust's regex engine. However, many users expect it to
be supported. Therefore, when octal support is disabled, the error
message will explicitly mention that backreferences aren't supported.</p>

<p>The nesting limit controls how deep the abstract syntax tree is allowed
to be. If the AST exceeds the given limit (e.g., with too many nested
groups), then an error is returned by the parser.</p>
<p>The purpose of this limit is to act as a heuristic to prevent stack
overflow for consumers that do structural induction on an <code>Ast</code> using
explicit recursion. While this crate never does this (instead using
constant stack space and moving the call stack to the heap), other
crates may.</p>
<p>This limit is not checked until the entire Ast is parsed. Therefore,
if callers want to put a limit on the amount of heap space used, then
they should impose a limit on the length, in bytes, of the concrete
pattern string. In particular, this is viable since this parser
implementation will limit itself to heap space proportional to the
lenth of the pattern string.</p>
<p>Note that a nest limit of <code>0</code> will return a nest limit error for most
patterns but not all. For example, a nest limit of <code>0</code> permits <code>a</code> but
not <code>ab</code>, since <code>ab</code> requires a concatenation, which results in a nest
depth of <code>1</code>. In general, a nest limit is not something that manifests
in an obvious way in the concrete syntax, therefore, it should not be
used in a granular way.</p>

<h2>Search Tricks</h2>
<p>
Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g.
<code>fn:</code>) to restrict the search to a given type.
</p>
<p>
Accepted types are: <code>fn</code>, <code>mod</code>,
<code>struct</code>, <code>enum</code>,
<code>trait</code>, <code>type</code>, <code>macro</code>,
and <code>const</code>.
</p>
<p>
Search functions by type signature (e.g.
<code>vec -> usize</code> or <code>* -> vec</code>)
