/// @brief Configuration Manager
///
/// DCfgMgrBase is an abstract class that provides the mechanisms for managing
/// an application's configuration.  This includes services for parsing sets of
/// configuration values, storing the parsed information in its converted form,
/// and retrieving the information on demand.  It is intended to be the worker
/// class which is handed a set of configuration values to process by upper
/// application management layers.
///
/// This class allows two configuration methods:
///
/// 1. classic method
///
/// The class presents a public method for receiving new configurations,
/// parseConfig.  This method coordinates the parsing effort as follows:
///
/// @code
///    make backup copy of configuration context
///    Split top-level configuration elements into to sets:
///      1. Set of scalar elements (strings, booleans, ints, etc..)
///      2. Set of object elements (maps, lists, etc...)
///    For each entry in the scalar set:
///        get derivation-specific parser for element
///        run parser
///        update context with parsed results
///        break on error
///
///    For each entry in the object set;
///        get derivation-specific parser for element
///        run parser
///        update context with parsed results
///        break on error
///
///    if an error occurred or this is only a check
///        restore configuration context from backup
/// @endcode
///
/// The above structuring ensures that global parameters are parsed first
/// making them available during subsequent object element parsing. The order
/// in which the object elements are processed is either:
///
///    1. Natural order presented by the configuration set
///    2. Specific order determined by a list of element ids
///
/// This allows a derivation to specify the order in which its elements are
/// parsed if there are dependencies between elements.
///
/// To parse a given element, its id along with the element itself,
/// is passed into the virtual method, @c parseElement. Derivations are
/// expected to converts the element into application specific object(s),
/// thereby isolating the CPL from application details.
///
/// In the event that an error occurs, parsing is halted and the
/// configuration context is restored from backup.
///
/// See @ref isc::d2::D2CfgMgr and @ref isc::d2::D2Process for example use of
/// this approach.
///
/// 2. simple configuration method
///
/// This approach assumes usage of @ref isc::data::SimpleParser paradigm. It
/// does not use any intermediate storage, does not use parser pointers, does
/// not enforce parsing order.
///
/// Here's the expected control flow order:
/// 1. implementation calls simpleParseConfig from its configure method.
/// 2. simpleParseConfig makes a configuration context
/// 3. parse method from the derived class is called
/// 4. if the configuration was unsuccessful or this is only a check, the
///    old context is reinstantiated. If not, the configuration is kept.
///
/// See @ref isc::agent::CtrlAgentCfgMgr and @ref isc::agent::CtrlAgentProcess
/// for example use of this approach.
