* A BidiRun represents a sequence of characters at the same embedding level.
* The Bidi algorithm decomposes a piece of text into sequences of characters
* at the same embedding level, each such sequence is called a run
.
*
* A BidiRun represents such a run by storing its essential properties,
* but does not duplicate the characters which form the run.
*
*
The "limit" of the run is the position just after the
* last character, i.e., one more than that position.
*
*
This class has no public constructor, and its members cannot be
* modified by users.

* Note that members start and limit of a run instance have different
* meanings depending whether the run is part of the runs array of a Bidi

* For a member of the runs array of a Bidi object,
* - start is the first logical position of the run in the source text.
* - limit is one after the last visual position of the run.
* For a reference returned by getLogicalRun() or getVisualRun(),
* - start is the first logical position of the run in the source text.
* - limit is one after the last logical position of the run.
