A finite state machine consists of n states (struct ts_fsm_token)
representing the pattern as a finite automation. The data is read
sequentially on a octet basis. Every state token specifies the number
of recurrences and the type of value accepted which can be either a
specific character or ctype based set of characters. The available
type of recurrences include 1, (0|1), [0 n], and [1 n].

The algorithm differs between strict/non-strict mode specyfing
whether the pattern has to start at the first octect. Strict mode
is enabled by default and can be disabled by inserting
TS_FSM_HEAD_IGNORE as the first token in the chain.

The runtime performance of the algorithm should be around O(n),
however while in strict mode the average runtime can be better.
