For example, with a Required Insert Count of 9, a decoder receives a S bit of 1
and a Delta Base of 2. This sets the Base to 6 and enables post-base indexing
for three entries. In this example, a regular index of 1 refers to the 5th
for three entries. In this example, a relative index of 1 refers to the 5th
entry that was added to the table; a post-base index of 1 refers to the 8th
entry.
