	/**
	* Unicode Normalization
	*
	* <h2>Unicode normalization API</h2>
	*
	* <code>normalize</code> transforms Unicode text into an equivalent composed or
	* decomposed form, allowing for easier sorting and searching of text.
	* <code>normalize</code> supports the standard normalization forms described in
	* <a href="http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr15/" target="unicode">
	* Unicode Standard Annex #15 — Unicode Normalization Forms</a>.
	*
	* Characters with accents or other adornments can be encoded in
	* several different ways in Unicode. For example, take the character A-acute.
	* In Unicode, this can be encoded as a single character (the
	* "composed" form):
	*
	* <pre>
	* 00C1 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH ACUTE
	* </pre>
	*
	* or as two separate characters (the "decomposed" form):
	*
	* <pre>
	* 0041 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A
	* 0301 COMBINING ACUTE ACCENT
	* </pre>
	*
	* To a user of your program, however, both of these sequences should be
	* treated as the same "user-level" character "A with acute accent". When you
	* are searching or comparing text, you must ensure that these two sequences are
	* treated equivalently. In addition, you must handle characters with more than
	* one accent. Sometimes the order of a character's combining accents is
	* significant, while in other cases accent sequences in different orders are
	* really equivalent.
	*
	* Similarly, the string "ffi" can be encoded as three separate letters:
	*
	* <pre>
	* 0066 LATIN SMALL LETTER F
	* 0066 LATIN SMALL LETTER F
	* 0069 LATIN SMALL LETTER I
	* </pre>
	*
	* or as the single character
	*
	* <pre>
	* FB03 LATIN SMALL LIGATURE FFI
	* </pre>
	*
	* The ffi ligature is not a distinct semantic character, and strictly speaking
	* it shouldn't be in Unicode at all, but it was included for compatibility
	* with existing character sets that already provided it. The Unicode standard
	* identifies such characters by giving them "compatibility" decompositions
	* into the corresponding semantic characters. When sorting and searching, you
	* will often want to use these mappings.
	*
	* <code>normalize</code> helps solve these problems by transforming text into
	* the canonical composed and decomposed forms as shown in the first example
	* above. In addition, you can have it perform compatibility decompositions so
	* that you can treat compatibility characters the same as their equivalents.
	* Finally, <code>normalize</code> rearranges accents into the proper canonical
	* order, so that you do not have to worry about accent rearrangement on your
	* own.
	*
	* Form FCD, "Fast C or D", is also designed for collation.
	* It allows to work on strings that are not necessarily normalized
	* with an algorithm (like in collation) that works under "canonical closure",
	* i.e., it treats precomposed characters and their decomposed equivalents the
	* same.
	*
	* It is not a normalization form because it does not provide for uniqueness of
	* representation. Multiple strings may be canonically equivalent (their NFDs
	* are identical) and may all conform to FCD without being identical themselves.
	*
	* The form is defined such that the "raw decomposition", the recursive
	* canonical decomposition of each character, results in a string that is
	* canonically ordered. This means that precomposed characters are allowed for
	* as long as their decompositions do not need canonical reordering.
	*
	* Its advantage for a process like collation is that all NFD and most NFC texts
	* - and many unnormalized texts - already conform to FCD and do not need to be
	* normalized (NFD) for such a process. The FCD quick check will return YES for
	* most strings in practice.
	*
	* normalize(FCD) may be implemented with NFD.
	*
	* For more details on FCD see Unicode Technical Note #5 (Canonical Equivalence in Applications):
	* http://www.unicode.org/notes/tn5/#FCD
	*
	* ICU collation performs either NFD or FCD normalization automatically if
	* normalization is turned on for the collator object. Beyond collation and
	* string search, normalized strings may be useful for string equivalence
	* comparisons, transliteration/transcription, unique representations, etc.
	*
	* The W3C generally recommends to exchange texts in NFC.
	* Note also that most legacy character encodings use only precomposed forms and
	* often do not encode any combining marks by themselves. For conversion to such
	* character encodings the Unicode text needs to be normalized to NFC.
	* For more usage examples, see the Unicode Standard Annex.
	*
	* Note: The Normalizer class also provides API for iterative normalization.
	* While the setIndex() and getIndex() refer to indices in the
	* underlying Unicode input text, the next() and previous() methods
	* iterate through characters in the normalized output.
	* This means that there is not necessarily a one-to-one correspondence
	* between characters returned by next() and previous() and the indices
	* passed to and returned from setIndex() and getIndex().
	* It is for this reason that Normalizer does not implement the CharacterIterator interface.
