  \class QDocForest
 
  A class representing a forest of Tree objects.
 
  This private class manages a collection of Tree objects (a
  forest) for the singleton QDocDatabase object. It is only
  accessed by that singleton QDocDatabase object, which is a
  friend. Each tree in the forest is an instance of class
  Tree, which is a mostly private class. Both QDocForest and
  QDocDatabase are friends of Tree and have full access.
 
  There are two kinds of trees in the forest, differing not
  in structure but in use. One Tree is the primary tree. It
  is the tree representing the module being documented. All
  the other trees in the forest are called index trees. Each
  one represents the contents of the index file for one of
  the modules the current module must be able to link to.
 
  The instances of subclasses of Node in the primary tree
  will contain documentation in an instance of Doc. The
  index trees contain no documentation, and each Node in
  an index tree is marked as an index node.
 
  Each tree is named with the name of its module.
 
  The search order is created by searchOrder(), if it has
  not already been created. The search order and module
  names arrays have parallel structure, i.e. modulNames_[i]
  is the module name of the Tree at searchOrder_[i].
 
  The primary tree is always the first tree in the search
  order. i.e., when the database is searched, the primary
  tree is always searched first, unless a specific tree is
  being searched.
 */
 
/*!
  Destroys the qdoc forest. This requires deleting
  each Tree in the forest. Note that the forest has
