/**
 * Class to represent {@code ByteStrings} formed by concatenation of other
 * ByteStrings, without copying the data in the pieces. The concatenation is
 * represented as a tree whose leaf nodes are each a {@link LiteralByteString}.
 *
 * <p>Most of the operation here is inspired by the now-famous paper <a
 * href="http://www.cs.ubc.ca/local/reading/proceedings/spe91-95/spe/vol25/issue12/spe986.pdf">
 * BAP95 </a> Ropes: an Alternative to Strings hans-j. boehm, russ atkinson and
 * michael plass
 *
 * <p>The algorithms described in the paper have been implemented for character
 * strings in {@link com.google.common.string.Rope} and in the c++ class {@code
 * cord.cc}.
 *
 * <p>Fundamentally the Rope algorithm represents the collection of pieces as a
 * binary tree. BAP95 uses a Fibonacci bound relating depth to a minimum
 * sequence length, sequences that are too short relative to their depth cause a
 * tree rebalance.  More precisely, a tree of depth d is "balanced" in the
 * terminology of BAP95 if its length is at least F(d+2), where F(n) is the
 * n-the Fibonacci number. Thus for depths 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,... we have minimum
 * lengths 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13,...

   * least 2, of depth 4 must have length >= 8, etc.
