Lt-trim

lt-trim is the application responsible for trimming compiled dictionaries. The analyses (right-side when compiling lr) of analyser_binary are trimmed to the input side of bidix_binary (left-side when compiling lr, right-side when compiling rl), such that only analyses which would pass through `lt-proc -b bidix_binary' are kept.

Both compund tags (`<compound-only-L>', `<compound-R>') and join elements (`<j/>' in XML, `+' in the stream) and the group element (`<g/>' in XML, `#' in the stream) should be handled correctly.

You should not trim a generator unless you have a very simple translator pipeline, since the output of bidix seldom goes unchanged through transfer.
