/*
  binarization: decimate rhs of original rules until their rhs have been reduced to length 2 (or 1 if bin_unary).  also decimate rhs of newly binarized rules until length 2.  newly created rules are all binary (never unary/nullary).

  bin_name_nts: nts[i].from will be initialized, including adding new names to TD

  bin_l2r: right-branching (a (b c)) means suffixes are shared.  if requested, the only other option that matters is bin_unary

  otherwise, greedy binarization: the pairs that are most frequent in the rules are binarized, one at a time.  this should be done efficiently: each pair has a count of and list of its left and right adjacent pair+count (or maybe a non-count collapsed list of adjacent instances).  this can be efficiently updated when a pair is chosen for replacement by a new virtual NT.
