/** @file record.hpp
 ** Special collection to represent object-like data.
 ** To be used in a context where introspection, open, extensible definitions
 ** and loose coupling of data representation matters. Typically, structures
 ** defined in terms of Record elements are linked to the actual \em core
 ** representation of the same entities relying on
 ** \link diff-language.hpp diff messages. \endlink
 ** Record is one of the supported flavours within the DataCap of GenNode elements,
 ** which in turn serve as the standard handle to refer to other elements, entities,
 ** attributes or references within the "backbone" of the Lumiera GUI.
 ** 
 ** \par design decisions
 ** The Record type is shaped from its intended use: It serves to symbolically represent
 ** \em objects in the "external tree description". Here, \em objects means objects for
 ** real, i.e. with types, fields and an enclosed scope. But \em external means that we
 ** do not work on these objects right here, we only represent them, for later referral,
 ** \em symbolically.
 ** 
 ** This leads to the following decisions
 ** - the Record entity is itself an object and thus has an inner side, privately.
 **   The entrails of the Record can be reworked and tuned for performance
 ** - yet the Record has an external appearance, which makes it look flat and passive.
 **   This is to say, a Record has no visible functionality.
 ** - the parts or \em realms within this symbolic representation are distinguished
 **   by convention solely
 **   
 **   * metadata is very limited and boils down to a type attribute known by name
 **   * children (scope contents) can be recognised by \em not bearing a name
 ** 
 ** Record entities are meant to be immutable. The proper way to alter a Record is
 ** to apply a \link tree-diff.hpp diff \endlink. Yet for the \em implementation
 ** of this diff handling, a Record::Mutator is provided, to allow controlled
 ** partial re-building of a given data element.
 ** 
 ** \par rationale
 ** The underlying theme of this design is negative, dialectical: we do not want to
 ** build yet another object system. The object model of C++ is deemed adequate.
 ** 
 ** @remarks
 **  - the implementation is focused on the intended primary use case,
 **    which is to exchange diff messages drawn against a symbolic representation
 **    of a typed object tree. Especially, we assume that there is only a small
 **    number of attributes (so linear search for access by key is adequate).
 **  - moreover, we assume that the value type allows for somehow embedding
 **    the key of each attribute; the implementation needs an explicit
 **    specialisation of the binding functions for each value type.
 **  - this header defines a specialisation for VAL = std::string --
 **    while the most relevant specialisation for GenNode is provided
 **    alongside with this special, monadic value type.
 **  - an alternative implementation approach would have been to use a
 **    dedicated helper type to represent the collection of attributes.
 **    This type might then be specialised, e.g. to utilise an index table
 **    for key-value lookup. However, in the light of the intended usage
 **    of Record entities as tree nodes within a GenNode monad, such a
 **    more elaborate approach was deemed unnecessary for the time being.

   * A Record holds both \em attributes (key-value data)
   * plus a list of \em enclosed children, which are conceived
   * to be within the "scope" of this Record. Optionally, a \em typeID
   * (metadata) may be defined. Otherwise, this typeID defaults to \c "NIL".
   * The representation of attributes depends on the actual value type, which
   * somehow need the ability to encode the keys within the value data.
   * By default, a specialisation is given for string, using the \c "key = val"
   * syntax. Yet the most relevant use case is \c Record<GenNode> -- using the
   * embedded name-ID of the GenNode elements as key for attributes.
   * 
   * Record elements are meant to be immutable; they can be created from a
   * defining collection. However, we provide a #Mutator mechanism to allow
   * for rebuilding and mutating symbolic data structures based on Records
   * and GenNode. Essentially, Lumiera's diff framework relies on this.
