"""
Data structures for accumulating tree-structured data from multiple sources.

Data is acquired from file and directory names and also from yaml files in the
tree. The yaml files are loaded in increasing priority from upper directories
to the local one, starting from the highest level file to contain a "project_root"
key.

The files named for their parent directory are assumed to be KitCAT files (i.e.
"kitcat.yaml" and "<dirname>.yaml" are treated the same way). Only files named
"abx.yaml" are assumed to be configuration files specific to ABX. 

We collect these by going up the file path, and then load them coming down. If
we find a "project_root" key, we ditch the previous data and start over. This way
any project files found above the project root will be ignored.

As a use case: if we were to store a new project inside of another project, the
new project's project_root would make it blind to the settings in the containing
project. Other directories in the parent project would still go to the parent
project's root. This avoids having the location the project is stored affect
the project data.

The overall structure is a dictionary. When updating with new data, any element
that is itself a dictionary is treated recursively (that is, it is updated with
directory data when another dictionary is provided for the same key). If an
element is a list, then data from successively-higher directories extends the
list (see UnionList, below). If a scalar replaces a dictionary or list value in
a more specific entry, then it clobbers it and any updated information in it.
