 * @brief Implementation of [Duval's algorithm](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyndon_word).
 *
 * @details
 * Duval's algorithm is an algorithm to find the lexicographically smallest
 * rotation of a string. It is based on the concept of Lyndon words.
 * Lyndon words are defined as the lexicographically smallest string in a
 * rotation equivalence class. A rotation equivalence class is a set of strings
 * that can be obtained by rotating a string. For example, the rotation
 * equivalence class of "abc" is {"abc", "bca", "cab"}. The lexicographically
 * smallest string in this class is "abc".
 *
 * Duval's algorithm works by iterating over the string and finding the
 * smallest rotation of the string that is a Lyndon word. This is done by
 * comparing the string with its suffixes and finding the smallest suffix that
 * is lexicographically smaller than the string. This suffix is then added to
 * the result and the process is repeated with the remaining string.
 * The algorithm has a time complexity of O(n) where n is the length of the
 * string.
 *
 * @note While Lyndon words are described in the context of strings,
 * Duval's algorithm can be used to find the lexicographically smallest cyclic
 * shift of any sequence of comparable elements.
