// moveToFrontDecoder implements a move-to-front list. Such a list is an
// efficient way to transform a string with repeating elements into one with
// many small valued numbers, which is suitable for entropy encoding. It works
// by starting with an initial list of symbols and references symbols by their
// index into that list. When a symbol is referenced, it's moved to the front
// of the list. Thus, a repeated symbol ends up being encoded with many zeros,
// as the symbol will be at the front of the list after the first access.
