_getCSSClassNameIndex

private static Number _getCSSClassNameIndex(String currentClassName,
String className)

Returns the index at which className appears within currentClassName with either a space or the beginning or end of currentClassName on either side. This function optimizes the runtime speed by not creating objects in most cases and assuming 1) It is OK to only check for spaces as whitespace characters 2) It is rare for the searched className to be a substring of another className, therefore if we get a hit on indexOf, we have almost certainly found our className 3) It is even rarer for the searched className to be a substring of more than one className, therefore, repeating the search from the end of the string should almost always either return our className or the original search hit from indexOf
