// This header contains the core policy evaluator. In its simplest form
// it evaluates a stream of opcodes assuming that they are laid out in
// memory as opcode groups.
//
// An opcode group has N comparison opcodes plus 1 action opcode. For
// example here we have 3 opcode groups (A, B,C):
//
// [comparison 1]  <-- group A start
// [comparison 2]
// [comparison 3]
// [action A    ]
// [comparison 1]  <-- group B start
// [action B    ]
// [comparison 1]  <-- group C start
// [comparison 2]
// [action C    ]
//
// The opcode evaluator proceeds from the top, evaluating each opcode in
// sequence. An opcode group is evaluated until the first comparison that
// returns false. At that point the rest of the group is skipped and evaluation
// resumes with the first comparison of the next group. When all the comparisons
// in a group have evaluated to true and the action is reached. The group is
// considered a matching group.
//
// In the 'ShortEval' mode evaluation stops when it reaches the end or the first
// matching group. The action opcode from this group is the resulting policy
// action.
//
// In the 'RankedEval' mode evaluation stops only when it reaches the end of the
// the opcode stream. In the process all matching groups are saved and at the
// end the 'best' group is selected (what makes the best is TBD) and the action
// from this group is the resulting policy action.
//
// As explained above, the policy evaluation of a group is a logical AND of
// the evaluation of each opcode. However an opcode can request kPolUseOREval
// which makes the evaluation to use logical OR. Given that each opcode can
// request its evaluation result to be negated with kPolNegateEval you can
// achieve the negation of the total group evaluation. This means that if you
// need to express:
//             if (!(c1 && c2 && c3))
// You can do it by:
//             if ((!c1) || (!c2) || (!c3))
//
