Description

RunAutomaton is (of course) built from an Automaton and it stores it on a field, package-private. It would be convenient to expose it via a getter. In fact CompiledAutomaton wants it.

While we're at it, lets mark all the fields private and ensure that the only classes using its state (currently its 2 subclasses) use the getters that already exist for what they need. Those getters are already final so I don't expect a performance impact.
