/**
 * Records (stores) characters supplied one at a time conditional on
 * whether recording is currently enabled.
 *
 * When {@link #maybeRecord(char)} is called, it will add the
 * supplied character to the recording buffer but only if
 * recording is in progress. This is useful in our
 * {@link com.com.google.gwt.thirdparty.streamhtmlparser.security.streamhtmlparser.HtmlParser}
 * as the caller logic to enable/disable recording is decoupled from the logic
 * of recording.
 *
 * 
This is a specialized class - of no use to external code -
 * which aims to be 100% compatible with the corresponding logic
 * in the C-version of the HtmlParser, specifically in
 * statemachine.c. In particular:
 * 

 *   The {@code startRecording()} and {@code stopRecording()} methods
 *       may be called repeatedly without interleaving since the C version is
 *       not guaranteed to interleave them.
 *   
There is a size limit to the recording buffer as set in
 *       {@link #RECORDING_BUFFER_SIZE}. Once the size is
 *       reached, no further characters are recorded regardless of whether
 *       recording is currently enabled.
 *
