+ * A regex based tokenizer that extracts tokens either by repeatedly
matching the regex(default)

parameters also allow to fold
+ * the text to lowercase prior to it being tokenized and to filer tokens
using a minimal length.
+ * It returns an array of strings that can be empty.
+ * The default parameters are regex = "\\p{L}+|[^\\p{L}\\s]+", matching =
true,
+ * lowercase = false, minTokenLength = 1

This is not necessary at this time. It doesn't affect any user code because
we don't expect users to treat tokenizers in a generic way.
