-/** @mainpage The COLLECTION interface
- * The collection is a set of items of different types.
- *
- * To better understand how collections work imagine travel bags.
- * They usually come in different sizes and one can put a bag in a bag when
- * they put away to the shelf in a garage or closet. Collection is such bag
- * except that you can put other bags into each other even if they are not
- * empty.<br>
- * When you put items into a bag you do not see the contents of the bag.
- * You just hold the bag. How many other bags inside this bag you do not know.
- * But you might know that you put a "wallet" somewhere there.
- * You ask the bag you hold: "find my wallet and give it to me".
- * get_item function will return you the item that is your "wallet".
- * You can then change something or just get information about the item you
- * retrieved. But in most cases you do not need the wallet itself. You want to
- * get something from the wallet or put something into it. IMO money would
- * be an obvious choice. To do this you use update_xxx_property functions.<br>
- * There might be a bag somewhere deep and you might want to add something to
- * it. add_xxx_property_xxx functions allow you to specify sub collection you
- * want the item to be added to. If this sub collection argument is NULL top
- * level collection is assumed.<br>
- * The search in the collections uses a "x!y!z" notation to refer to an item (or
- * property). You can search for "wallet" and it will find any first instance of
- * the "wallet" in your luggage. But you might have two wallets. One is yours and
- * another is your significant other's. So you might say find "my!wallet".
- * It will find wallet in your bag (collection) named "my". This collection can
- * be many levels deep inside other collections. You do not need to know the
- * full path to get to it. But if you have the full path you can use the fill
- * path like this "luggage!newbags!my!wallet".<br>
- * It is useful to be able to put bags into bags as well as get them out of each
- * other. When the collection is created the header keeps a reference count on
- * how many copies of the collection are known to the world. So one can put a
- * collection into collection and give up its access to it (embed) or still hold
- * to the reference. By embedding the collection the caller effectively gives
- * up its responsibility to destroy the collection after it is used.<br>
- * By extracting reference from an internal collection the caller gains access
- * to the collection directly and thus has responsibility to destroy it after
- * use.
- *
- * Internally collection is implemented as a link list rather than a hash
- * table.
- * This makes it suitable for small (dozens of items) sets of data for which
- * the order is important. Thus the collection properties and sub collections
- * can be used to model objects like a book case. Imagine a book case that
- * consists of multiple shelves. You can perform operations like "add a new
- * shelf after second shelf" or "put a book on the 4th shelf right before
- * the book with the red cover."
- *
- * A bit of terminology:
- * - <b>collection</b> - an object implemented as a link list that holds
- * properties (attributes).
- * - <b>property</b> - a named logical element of the collection.
- * - <b>item</b> - physical element of the collection, think about it
- * as a node in the link list.
- * - <b>value</b> - data associated with the property.
- * - <b>type</b> - type of the data associated with a property.
- * - <b>length</b> - length of the data associated with the property.
- * - <b>sub collection</b> - collection embedded into another collection.
- * It is a property with the value of a special
- * type. The name of the property that denotes
- * a sub collection can be different from the name
- * of the collection it refers to.
- * - <b>traverse</b> - call a function that will internally iterate
- * through a collection and do something with its
- * elements.
- * - <b>iterate</b> - step through a collection yourselves.
- *
- * Characters with codes less than space in ASCII table are illegal for
- * property names.
- * Character '!' also illegal in a property or collection name and
- * reserved for "x!y!z" notation.
- *
- * There is always a header item in any collection that starts the collection.
- * Most of the functions in the interface (unless explicitly stated otherwise)
- * assume that the collection_item * argument points to the header element.
- * Passing in elements extracted from the middle of a collection to functions
- * that expect header elements is illegal. There might be not enough checking
- * at the moment but this will be enforced in future versions of the library.

- * How deep are we relative to the top level?

- * misleading. The reason is that traverse flags affect the internal
- * level we are on at each moment.
- * For example the default traverse behavior is to show
- * references to the sub collections.
- * So when the item reference is returned the
- * depth automatically adjusted to level inside the sub collection.
- * So if function is called in this situation the level returned will
- * denote the level inside collection.
- * Now imagine that this collection is empty so the attempt to read
- * element will push you automatically one level up (in absence of the
- * \ref COL_TRAVERSE_END flag). If in this situation you encounter another
- * collection the reference will be returned and level automatically
- * adjusted to level inside the collection.
- * The point is that the level is reliable only after
- * a data item was returned.
- * To avoid this ambiguity another function \ref col_get_item_depth

-/**
- * @brief Pin iterator
- *
- * Pins down the iterator to loop around current point.
- *
- * This feature allows some search optimization.
- * The idea is to be able to put a 'pin'
- * into a specific place while iterating
- * the collection and make this place a new
- * "wrap around" place for the collection.
- * This means that next time you
- * iterate this collection you will start
- * iterating from the next item and
- * the item you got before setting pin will be
- * the last in your iteration cycle.
- *
- * Here is the example:
- *
- * Assume you have two collections that you need
- * to compare and perform some action on collection
- * 1 based on the presence of the item in collection 2.
- * - Collection1 = A, B, C, D, E, F
- * - Collection2 = A, C, F
- *
- * The usual approach is to try A from collection 1
- * against A, B, C from collection 2. "A" will be found
- * right away. But to find "F" it has to be compared
- * to "A" and "C" first. The fact that the collections
- * are to some extent ordered can in some cases
- * help to reduce the number of comparisons.
- * If we found "C" in the list we can put a "pin"
- * into the collection there causing the iterator
- * to warp at this "pin" point. Since "D" and "E"
- * are not in the second collection we will have
- * to make same amount of comparisons in traditional
- * or "pinned" case to not find them.
- * To find "F" in pinned case there will be just one
- * comparison.
- * - Traditional case = 1 + 3 + 2 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 15
- * - Pinned case = 1 + 3 + 1 + 3 + 3 + 1 = 12
- *
- * It is a 20% comparison reduction.
- *
- * @param[in] iterator Iterator object to use.
- *
- * @return 0 - Success.
- * @return EINVAL - The value of the argument is invalid.
