+ * Reference RFC 6020.
+ *
+ * The "augment" statement allows a module or submodule to add to the
+ *  schema tree defined in an external module, or the current module and
+ *  its submodules, and to add to the nodes from a grouping in a "uses"
+ *  statement.  The argument is a string that identifies a node in the
+ *  schema tree.  This node is called the augment's target node.  The
+ *  target node MUST be either a container, list, choice, case, input,
+ *  output, or notification node.  It is augmented with the nodes defined
+ *  in the sub-statements that follow the "augment" statement.
+ *
+ *  The argument string is a schema node identifier.
+ *  If the "augment" statement is on the top level in a module or
+ *  submodule, the absolute form of a schema node identifier
+ *  MUST be used.  If the "augment" statement is a sub-statement to the
+ *  "uses" statement, the descendant form MUST be used.
+ *
+ *  If the target node is a container, list, case, input, output, or
+ *  notification node, the "container", "leaf", "list", "leaf-list",
+ *  "uses", and "choice" statements can be used within the "augment"
+ *  statement.
+ *
+ *  If the target node is a choice node, the "case" statement, or a case
+ *  shorthand statement can be used within the "augment" statement.
+ *
+ *   If the target node is in another module, then nodes added by the
+ *  augmentation MUST NOT be mandatory nodes.
+ *
+ *  The "augment" statement MUST NOT add multiple nodes with the same
+ *  name from the same module to the target node.
+ *  The augment's sub-statements

+ * Reference RFC 6020.
+ *
+ * The "case" statement is used to define branches of the choice. It takes as an
+ * argument an identifier, followed by a block of sub-statements that holds
+ * detailed case information.
+ *
+ * The identifier is used to identify the case node in the schema tree. A case
+ * node does not exist in the data tree.
+ *
+ * Within a "case" statement, the "anyxml", "choice", "container", "leaf",
+ * "list", "leaf-list", and "uses" statements can be used to define child nodes
+ * to the case node. The identifiers of all these child nodes MUST be unique
+ * within all cases in a choice. For example, the following is illegal:
+ *
+ * choice interface-type {     // This example is illegal YANG
+ *        case a {
+ *            leaf ethernet { ... }
+ *        }
+ *        case b {
+ *            container ethernet { ...}
+ *        }
+ *    }
+ *
+ *  As a shorthand, the "case" statement can be omitted if the branch
+ *  contains a single "anyxml", "container", "leaf", "list", or
+ *  "leaf-list" statement.  In this case, the identifier of the case node
+ *  is the same as the identifier in the branch statement.  The following
+ *  example:
+ *
+ *    choice interface-type {
+ *        container ethernet { ... }
+ *    }
+ *
+ *  is equivalent to:
+ *
+ *    choice interface-type {
+ *        case ethernet {
+ *            container ethernet { ... }
+ *        }
+ *    }
+ *
+ *  The case identifier MUST be unique within a choice.

+ * Reference RFC 6020.
+ *
+ * The "container" statement is used to define an interior data node in the
+ * schema tree. It takes one argument, which is an identifier, followed by a
+ * block of sub-statements that holds detailed container information.
+ *
+ * A container node does not have a value, but it has a list of child nodes in
+ * the data tree. The child nodes are defined in the container's sub-statements.
+ *
+ * Containers with Presence
+ *
+ * YANG supports two styles of containers, those that exist only for organizing
+ * the hierarchy of data nodes, and those whose presence in the configuration
+ * has an explicit meaning.
+ *
+ * In the first style, the container has no meaning of its own, existing only to
+ * contain child nodes. This is the default style.
+ *
+ * For example, the set of scrambling options for Synchronous Optical Network
+ * (SONET) interfaces may be placed inside a "scrambling" container to enhance
+ * the organization of the configuration hierarchy, and to keep these nodes
+ * together. The "scrambling" node itself has no meaning, so removing the node
+ * when it becomes empty relieves the user from performing this task.
+ *
+ * In the second style, the presence of the container itself is configuration
+ * data, representing a single bit of configuration data. The container acts as
+ * both a configuration knob and a means of organizing related configuration.
+ * These containers are explicitly created and deleted.
+ *
+ * YANG calls this style a "presence container" and it is indicated using the
+ * "presence" statement, which takes as its argument a text string indicating
+ * what the presence of the node means.
+ *
+ * The container's Substatements

+ * Reference RFC 6020.
+ *
+ *  The "grouping" statement is used to define a reusable block of nodes,
+ *  which may be used locally in the module, in modules that include it,
+ *  and by other modules that import from it.  It takes one argument,
+ *  which is an identifier, followed by a block of sub-statements that
+ *  holds detailed grouping information.
+ *
+ *  The "grouping" statement is not a data definition statement and, as
+ *  such, does not define any nodes in the schema tree.
+ *
+ *  A grouping is like a "structure" or a "record" in conventional
+ *  programming languages.
+ *  Once a grouping is defined, it can be referenced in a "uses"
+ *  statement.  A grouping MUST NOT reference itself,
+ *  neither directly nor indirectly through a chain of other groupings.
+ *
+ *  If the grouping is defined at the top level of a YANG module or
+ *  submodule, the grouping's identifier MUST be unique within the
+ *  module.
+ *
+ *  A grouping is more than just a mechanism for textual substitution,
+ *  but defines a collection of nodes.  Identifiers appearing inside the
+ *  grouping are resolved relative to the scope in which the grouping is
+ *  defined, not where it is used.  Prefix mappings, type names, grouping
+ *  names, and extension usage are evaluated in the hierarchy where the
+ *  "grouping" statement appears.  For extensions, this means that
+ *  extensions are applied to the grouping node, not the uses node.
+ *
+ *  The grouping's sub-statements

+ * If a leaf in the input tree has a "mandatory" statement with the

+ * If a "config" statement is present for any node in the input tree,

+     * A "length" statement restricts the number of unicode characters in

+     * A length range consists of an explicit value, or a lower bound, two
+     * consecutive dots "..", and an upper bound.  Multiple values or ranges
+     * can be given, separated by "|".  Length-restricting values MUST NOT
+     * be negative.  If multiple values or ranges are given, they all MUST
+     * be disjoint and MUST be in ascending order.  If a length restriction

+     * or splitting ranges into multiple ranges with intermediate gaps.  A
+     * length value is a non-negative integer, or one of the special values

+     * accepted for the type being restricted, respectively.  An

+ *  The "list" statement is used to define an interior data node in the

+ *  block of sub-statements that holds detailed list information.
+ *
+ *  A list entry is uniquely identified by the values of the list's keys,

+     * specified without adding leading strings designed to prevent name
+     * collisions within large modules.
+     *
+     * Finally, scoping allows the module author to keep types and groupings
+     * private to their module or submodule, preventing their reuse.  Since
+     * only top-level types and groupings (i.e., those appearing as
+     * sub-statements to a module or submodule statement) can be used outside

+     * the need to hide internal information and maintaining a boundary
+     * between what is shared with the outside world and what is kept
+     * private.
+     *
+     * Scoped definitions MUST NOT shadow definitions at a higher scope.  A
+     * type or grouping cannot be defined if a higher level in the schema
+     * hierarchy has a definition with a matching identifier.
+     *
+     * A reference to an unprefixed type or grouping, or one which uses the

+     * can be given, separated by "|".  Length-restricting values MUST NOT

+ *  While the primary unit in YANG is a module, a YANG module can itself
+ *  be constructed out of several submodules.  Submodules allow a module
+ *  designer to split a complex model into several pieces where all the
+ *  submodules contribute to a single namespace, which is defined by the
+ *  module that includes the submodules.
+ *
+ *  The "submodule" statement defines the submodule's name, and groups
+ *  all statements that belong to the submodule together.  The
+ *  "submodule" statement's argument is the name of the submodule,
+ *  followed by a block of sub-statements that hold detailed submodule
+ *  information.
