+/** convenience methods to encode line and column number in one
+ *  single integer. The encode line (column)
+ * numbers range from 0 to LINE_MASK (COLUMN_MASK), where 0 indicates
+ * that the line (column) is the undefined and 1 represents the first
+ * line (column). Line (Column) numbers greater than LINE_MASK
+ * (COLUMN_MASK) are replaced by LINE_MASK (COLUMN_MASK). Furthermore,
+ * if the encoded line number is LINE_MASK, the column number is
+ * always set to 0.
+
+ * The following properties hold:
+ * - the undefined position is 0: encode(0,0) == 0
+ * - encodings are non-negative : encode(line,column) >= 0
+ * - position order is preserved:
+ *   (line1 < line2) || (line1 == line2 && column1 < column2)
+ * implies
+ *   encode(line1,column1) <= encode(line2,column2)
