/** @addtogroup XBT_config
 *  @brief Changing the configuration of SimGrid components (grounding feature)
 *
 *  All modules of the SimGrid toolkit can be configured with this API.
 *  User modules and libraries can also use these facilities to handle their own configuration.
 *
 *  A configuration set contain several \e variables which have a unique name in the set and can take a given type of
 *  value. For example, it may contain a \a size variable, accepting \e int values.
 *
 *  It is impossible to set a value to a variable which has not been registered before.
 *  Usually, the module registers all the options it accepts in the configuration set, during its initialization and
 *  user code then set and unset values.
 *
 *  The easiest way to register a variable is to use the xbt_str_register_str function, which accepts a string
 *  representation of the config element descriptor. The syntax is the following:
 *  \verbatim <name>:<min nb>_to_<max nb>_<type>\endverbatim
 *
 *  For example, <tt>size:1_to_1_int</tt> describes a variable called \e size which must take exactly one value, and
 *  the value being an integer. Set the maximum to 0 to disable the upper bound on data count.
 *
 *  Another example could be <tt>outputfiles:0_to_10_string</tt> which describes a variable called \e outputfiles and
 *  which can take between 0 and 10 strings as value.
 *
 *  To some extend, configuration sets can be seen as typed hash structures.
 *
 *  \section XBT_cfg_ex Example of use
 *
 *  TBD

/** @defgroup XBT_cfg_use User interface: changing values
 *  @ingroup XBT_config
 *
 * This is the only interface you should use unless you want to let your own code become configurable with this.
 *
 * If the variable accept at most one value, those functions replace the current value with the provided one. If max>1,
 * the provided value is appended to the list.
 *
 * string values are strdup'ed before use, so you can (and should) free your copy
