/**
 * The annotated expression evaluates to either -1 or a non-negative integer less than the lengths
 * of all the given sequences. The annotation {@code @SubstringIndexFor(args)} is like 
 * {@literal @}{@link NonNegative} {@literal @}{@link LTLengthOf}(args), except that
 * {@code @SubstringIndexFor(args)} additionally permits the value -1.
 *
 * When multiple values or offsets are given, they are considered pairwise. For example,
 * {@code @SubstringIndexFor(value={"a", "b"}, offset={"c", "d"})} is equivalent to writing both
 * {@code @SubstringIndexFor(value="a", offset="c")} and {@code @SubstringIndexFor(value="b",
 * offset="d")}.
 *
 * 
The return types of JDK methods {@link java.lang.String#indexOf(String) String.indexOf} and
 * {@link java.lang.String#lastIndexOf(String) String.lastIndexOf} are annotated
 * {@code @SubstringIndexFor(value="this",offset="#1.length()-1")}. This means that the returned
 * value is either -1 or it is less than or equal to the length of the receiver sequence minus the
 * length of the sequence passed as the first argument.
 *
 * 
The name of this annotation, "substring index for", is intended to mean that the annotated
 * expression is a index of a substring (returned by {@code indexOf} or similar methods) for the
 * specified sequence.
