/*
 * Config Tree
 * ===========
 *
 * Accessing Hierarchical Nodes
 * ----------------------------
 *
 * A hierarchical data structure supporting arbitrary nesting. Each node
 * (Config::Node) has a key and either a value or children (in fact, it may
 * have both, but this rarely makes semantic sense and so the config tree 
 * builders take care not to allow it).
 *
 * Nesting is denoted with the '/' separator. For example:
 *
 *    1. node.ValueAs<int>()
 *    2. node["foo"]
 *    3. node["foo"].ValueAs<int>()
 *    4. node["foo/bar"]
 *
 * [1] accesses the value of the node (more on this below). [2] accesses the
 * a child node with key "foo". [3] accesses the value of the child node "foo".
 * [4] accesses child "bar" of child "foo", and so forth.
 * 
 * Similar to map semantics, the operator [] never fails. If the node does not
 * exist, it creates a dummy "missing" node that is retained as a hidden child.
 * This node will have an empty value, which cannot be accessed, except using 
 * the ValueAsDefault<> method. This scheme exists to simplify lookup code for
 * keys known at compile time, the logic being that any "missing" key should
 * could just as well have been there in the first place, thus making the added
 * memory usage negligible. For example, it easily allows values with defaults
 * to be expressed as:
 *
 *    config["foo/bar"].ValueAsDefault<std::string>("default_value")
 *
 * If the lookups are not known at compile time (e.g., are driven by the
 * program user or external data), it is safer to use Get() and TryGet(), which
 * can throw and return nullptr, respectively, and avoid wasting memory with
 * dummy nodes.
 *
 * Nodes at the same nesting level (siblings) are strung together in a
 * linked list. Parents also maintain pointers to the first and last of their
 * children (for order-preserving iteration) as well as a map for direct 
 * lookup by key.
 *
 * Keys may be reused at a given level. Key-value pairs will have their order
 * preserved when iterated but only the most recent key is returned in direct
 * map lookups.
 *
 * Example:
 *
 *    <game name="scud">
 *    <roms>
 *      <crom name="foo.bin" offset=0/>
 *      <crom name="bar.bin" offset=2/>
 *    </roms>
 *
 *    1. config["game/roms"].ValueAs<std::string>()
 *    2. config["game/roms/crom/offset"].ValueAs<int>()
 *    3. config["game/roms"].begin()
 *
 * [1] will either throw an exception or return an empty string (depending on
 * how the XML was translated to a config tree), [2] will return 2 (the second
 * "crom" tag), and [3] can be used to iterate over both "crom" tags in order.
 *
 * Values
 * ------
 *
 * To check whether or not a value is defined, use the Exists() and Empty()
 * methods.
 *
 * Values are stored in a special container and can be virtually anything.
 * However, it is recommended that only PODs and std::string be used. Arrays
 * and pointers will probably not behave as expected and should be avoided.
 * Trees build from files have all values loaded as std::strings. The types can
 * be changed by subsequent re-assignments or by manually building a tree.
 *
 * To access a value of a given known type, T, use:
 *
 *    node.Value<T>()
 *
 * Conversions as supported but are implemented via serialization and de-
 * serialization using sstream. Most "sane" conversions will work as expected.
 * When a conversion to T is desired, or if the stored value type is not 
 * precisely known, use:
 *
 *    node.ValueAs<T>()
 *
 * These functions will throw an exception if the value is not defined at all
 * or if the node does not exist (i.e., a "missing" node from a failed lookup).
 * An alternative that is guaranteed to succeed is:
 *
 *    node.ValueAsDefault<T>(default_value)
 *
 * If the value or node does not exist, default_value is returned, otherwise
 * the stored value is returned with conversion (if needed) to type T.
 *
 * INI Semantics
 * -------------
 *
 * INI files are linear in nature and divided into sections. Config trees built
 * to represent INI files must adhere to the following rules:
 *
 *  - Section nodes have their key set to the section name and value empty.
 *    They are the only nodes that can have children (i.e., IsLeaf() == false,
 *    HasChildren() == true).
 *  - Top-level node in the tree is the global section, and its key is 
 *    "Global".
 *  - Only the global section (top-level section) may have child nodes that are
 *    sections. The config tree can therefore only be up to 2 levels deep: the
 *    first, top-most level consists of global parameters, and section nodes
 *    provide one more level of nesting.
 *
 * INI files contain zero or more sections followed by zero or more settings
 * each.
 *
 *    Setting0 = 100
 *    [ Global ]
 *    Setting1 = 200
 *    [ Section1 ]
 *    SettingA = 1      ; this is a comment
 *    SettingB = foo
 *    [ Section2 ]
 *    SettingX = bar
 *    SettingZ = "baz"  ; quotes are optional and are stripped off during parsing
 *
 * Any setting not explicitly part of a section is assigned to the "Global"
 * section. For example, Setting0 and Setting1 above are both part of "Global".
 *
 * TODO
 * ----
 * - Define our own exceptions?
