/**
* A chunk is either a token tag, a rule tag, or a span of literal text within a
* tree pattern.
*
* The method {@link ParseTreePatternMatcher#split(String)} returns a list of
* chunks in preparation for creating a token stream by
* {@link ParseTreePatternMatcher#tokenize(String)}. From there, we get a parse
* tree from with {@link ParseTreePatternMatcher#compile(String, int)}. These
* chunks are converted to {@link RuleTagToken}, {@link TokenTagToken}, or the
* regular tokens of the text surrounding the tags.
