  Description     : Native Go English Porter2 stemmer

Porter2 implements the english Porter2 stemmer.  It is written
completely using finite state machines to do suffix comparison, rather
than the string-based or tree-based approaches.  As a result, it is
660% faster compared to string comparison-based approach.

I intend to package this library under the auspices of debian-med for
the sake of recent ncbi-entrez-direct releases.  However, if somebody
from the Go team wants to take this package over, they're certainly
welcome to it. ;-)
