/// A trie to efficiently match against the entries of the compilation
/// database in order of matching suffix length.
///
/// When a clang tool is supposed to operate on a specific file, we have to
/// find the corresponding file in the compilation database. Although entries
/// in the compilation database are keyed by filename, a simple string match
/// is insufficient because of symlinks. Commonly, a project hierarchy looks
/// like this:
///   /<project-root>/src/<path>/<somefile>.cc      (used as input for the tool)
///   /<project-root>/build/<symlink-to-src>/<path>/<somefile>.cc (stored in DB)
///
/// Furthermore, there might be symlinks inside the source folder or inside the
/// database, so that the same source file is translated with different build
/// options.
///
/// For a given input file, the \c FileMatchTrie finds its entries in order
/// of matching suffix length. For each suffix length, there might be one or
/// more entries in the database. For each of those entries, it calls
/// \c llvm::sys::fs::equivalent() (injected as \c PathComparator). There might
/// be zero or more entries with the same matching suffix length that are
/// equivalent to the input file. Three cases are distinguished:
/// 0  equivalent files: Continue with the next suffix length.
/// 1  equivalent file:  Best match found, return it.
/// >1 equivalent files: Match is ambiguous, return error.
