"""
Stable-tail sort computation.

The "stable-tail sort", or STS, is a reverse topological ordering of the
ancestors of a node, which tends to share large suffixes with the stable-tail
sort of ancestors and other nodes, giving it its name.

Its properties should make it suitable for making chunks of ancestors with high
reuse and incrementality for example.

This module and implementation are experimental. Most functions are not yet
optimised to operate on large production graphs.

    Where
    "px" denotes the parent starting the "exclusive" part, and
    "pt" denotes the parent starting the "Tail" part.

    "px" is chosen as the parent with the lowest rank with the goal of
    minimising the size of the exclusive part and maximise the size of the
    tail part, hopefully reducing the overall complexity of the stable sort.

    In case of equal ranks, the stable node ID is used as a tie-breaker.
