Description: For authors of command-line utilities. Simplifies: 1) Defining command-line options
        and parameters, 2) Parsing the command line, and 3) Displaying usage instructions
        to the console.
        
        Utility developers will 1) Subclass a module-defined class, 2) Include a YAML spec
        in the subclass to define the utility's options and usage, and 3) Invoke the module
        arg parser. When the utility is run, if the command line is valid according to 
        the YAML schema, then the supplied args are injected into the subclass by the
        parser. Otherwise errors are automatically displayed to the console.
        
        If the user specifies '-h' or '--help' on the command line, then usage instructions
        are displayed as defined in the YAML, in a form generally recognizable to users
        of console utilities. Specifically, displays summary usage, detailed options and
        params (including categorized options), positional params, and examples.
