 * Base class to make writing fast, simple escaping functions easy. A simple escaping function is
 * one where each character in the input is treated independently and there is no runtime state. The
 * only decision you make is whether the current character should be escaped into some different
 * string or not.
 *
 * The only serious limitation on using this class it that only low valued characters can be
 * escaped. This is because (for speed) we use an array of escaped strings, indexed by character
 * value. In future this limitation may be lifted if there's a call for it.
