(** {1 Subsequences}
A subsequence is a sequence that can be derived from another
sequence by deleting some or no elements without changing the order
of the remaining elements (Wikipedia).
Checking whether a word is a subsequence of another word can be done in
linear time (in the length of the second word) and is a nice example of
an optimal greedy algorithm.
