It feels somewhat strange that we have to set .max to set the floor
for the minimum length, but given the way update_common() uses and
maintains the member, it is more like "max size we have seen so
far", and by pretending that we have already seen common prefix of
length 1, we'd force ourselves that we need at least 2 to
differentiate.
