/*
 * This function implements the Damerau-Levenshtein algorithm to
 * calculate a distance between strings.
 *
 * Basically, it says how many letters need to be swapped, substituted,
 * deleted from, or added to string1, at least, to get string2.
 *
 * The idea is to build a distance matrix for the substrings of both
 * strings.  To avoid a large space complexity, only the last three rows
 * are kept in memory (if swaps had the same or higher cost as one deletion
 * plus one insertion, only two rows would be needed).
 *
 * At any stage, "i + 1" denotes the length of the current substring of
 * string1 that the distance is calculated for.
 *
 * row2 holds the current row, row1 the previous row (i.e. for the substring
 * of string1 of length "i"), and row0 the row before that.
 *
 * In other words, at the start of the big loop, row2[j + 1] contains the
 * Damerau-Levenshtein distance between the substring of string1 of length
 * "i" and the substring of string2 of length "j + 1".
 *
 * All the big loop does is determine the partial minimum-cost paths.
 *
 * It does so by calculating the costs of the path ending in characters
 * i (in string1) and j (in string2), respectively, given that the last
 * operation is a substition, a swap, a deletion, or an insertion.
 *
 * This implementation allows the costs to be weighted:
 *
 * - w (as in "sWap")
 * - s (as in "Substitution")
 * - a (for insertion, AKA "Add")
 * - d (as in "Deletion")
 *
 * Note that this algorithm calculates a distance _iff_ d == a.
