/**
  The Properties class defines an interface for storing key=value pairs,
  where both key and value may be UTF-8 strings.
 
  The interface contains functions for testing whether a key exists,
  replacing or removing key=value pairs, iteration etc. The interface
  also defines template functions for converting between strings and
  various primitive types.
 
  Please note that in debug builds, the get() functions will assert that
  the key exists. This is to make sure that non-existing keys are
  handled explicitly at the client side.
 
  The raw_string() function returns a semicolon separated list of all
  key=value pairs. Characters '=' and ';' that are part of key or value
  are escaped using the '\' as an escape character. The escape character
  itself must also be escaped if being part of key or value.
 
  Examples of usage:
 
    Add key=value:
      p->set("akey=avalue");
 
    Add a numeric value:
      p->set("intvalue", 1234);
 
    Get values:
      int32 num;
      p->get("intvalue", &num);
 
    Get raw string:
      String_type mylist= p->raw_string();
 
  Further comments can be found in the files properties_impl.{h,cc}
  where the interface is implemented.
