   moore and horspool, with a few more bells and whistles on the top.
   for some more background, see: http://effbot.org/zone/stringlib.htm */

/* note: fastsearch may access s[n], which isn't a problem when using
   Python's ordinary string types, but may cause problems if you're
   using this code in other contexts.  also, the count mode returns -1
   if there cannot possible be a match in the target string, and 0 if
   it has actually checked for matches, but didn't find any.  callers
   beware! */
