  # this is hard to explain. imagine we have this partial board:

  #    0 0 1 1 0 x       [positions 6-11]

  #    0 1 0 0 0 x       [positions 18-23]
  #   0 1 0 0 0 x        [positions 24-29]
  #    0 0 0 0 0 x       [positions 30-35]
  #       ...
  # The top-left of the piece is at position 8, the
  # board would be passed as a set of positions (values array) containing [8,9,14,19,25] not necessarily in that
  # sorted order.  Since that array starts on an odd row, the offsets for an odd row are: [0,1,6,11,17] obtained
  # by subtracting 8 from everything.  Now imagine the piece shifted up and to the right so it's on an even row:
  #   0 0 0 1 1 x        [positions 0-5]
  #    0 0 1 0 0 x       [positions 6-11]
  #   0 0 1 0 0 x        [positions 12-17]

  #       ...
  # Now the positions are [3,4,8,14,19] which after subtracting the lowest value (3) gives [0,1,5,11,16] thus, the

# determines if a board is punable, meaning that there is no possibility that it
# can be filled up with pieces.  A board is prunable if there is a grouping of unfilled spaces
# that are not a multiple of five.  The following board is an example of a prunable board:
#    0 0 1 0 0

# This board is prunable because the top left corner is only 3 bits in area, no piece will ever fit it
# parameters:
#   board -- an initial bit board (6 bit padded rows, see blank_board for format)

#    maintainng counts of active open areas (kept in the collector array) each collector contains
#    three values at the start of an iteration:
#          0: mask of bits that would be adjacent to the collector in this row
#          1: the number of bits collected so far
#          2: a scratch space starting as zero, but used during the computation to represent

#   Since any found solution has an inverse we want to maximize finding solutions that are not already found

#   diminsh over time.  Since we are TOLD how many to search for this lets us exit before checking all pieces
#   this bennifit is very great when seeking small numbers of solutions and is 0 when looking for more than the
