// 1 Avoid insertion sorting or bubble sorting the tail root node
//   (back links on node 0, a list of all the leaves.). The node is
//   huge, and sorting it with n^2 time is terrible.
// 2 Avoid using GenericVector::remove on the tail root node.
//   (a) During add of words to the trie, zero-out the unichars and
//       keep a freelist of spaces to re-use.
//   (b) During reduction, just zero-out the unichars of deleted back
//       links, skipping zero entries while searching.
// 3 Avoid linear search of the tail root node. This has to be done when
//   a suffix is added to an existing word. Adding words by decreasing
//   length avoids this problem entirely. Words can still be added in
//   any order, but it is faster to add the longest first.
