33   * Visitor which traverses a filter tree while normalizing the branch node
34   * order. Filter expressions can change the order of expressions in branch nodes
35   * without effecting the logical meaning of the expression. This visitor orders
36   * the children of expression tree branch nodes consistantly. It is really
37   * useful for comparing expression trees which may be altered for performance or
38   * altered because of codec idiosyncracies: for example the SNACC4J codec uses a
39   * hashmap to store expressions in a sequence which rearranges the order of
40   * children based on object hashcodes. We need this visitor to remove such
41   * inconsitancies in order hence normalizing the branch node's child order.
