/**
 * Some of the internal operations of micromark do lots of editing
 * operations on very large arrays. This runs into problems with two
 * properties of most circa-2020 JavaScript interpreters:
 *
 *  - Array-length modifications at the high end of an array (push/pop) are
 *    expected to be common and are implemented in (amortized) time
 *    proportional to the number of elements added or removed, whereas
 *    other operations (shift/unshift and splice) are much less efficient.
 *  - Function arguments are passed on the stack, so adding tens of thousands
 *    of elements to an array with `arr.push(...newElements)` will frequently
 *    cause stack overflows. (see <https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22123769/rangeerror-maximum-call-stack-size-exceeded-why>)
 *
 * SpliceBuffers are an implementation of gap buffers, which are a
 * generalization of the "queue made of two stacks" idea. The splice buffer
 * maintains a cursor, and moving the cursor has cost proportional to the
 * distance the cursor moves, but inserting, deleting, or splicing in
 * new information at the cursor is as efficient as the push/pop operation.
 * This allows for an efficient sequence of splices (or pushes, pops, shifts,
 * or unshifts) as long such edits happen at the same part of the array or
 * generally sweep through the array from the beginning to the end.
 *
 * The interface for splice buffers also supports large numbers of inputs by
 * passing a single array argument rather passing multiple arguments on the
 * function call stack.
 *
 * @template T
 *   Item type.
