 * This class allows reading/writing INI style config files.
 * It is used by the ConfigManager for storage, but can also
 * be used by other code if it needs to read/write custom INI
 * files.
 *
 * Lines starting with a '#' are ignored (i.e. treated as comments).
 * Some effort is made to preserve comments, though.
 *
 * This class makes no attempts to provide fast access to key/value pairs.
 * In particular, it stores all sections and k/v pairs in lists, not
 * in dictionaries/maps. This makes it very easy to read/write the data
 * from/to files, but of course is not appropriate for fast access.
 * The main reason is that this class is indeed geared toward doing precisely
 * that!
 * If you need fast access to the game config, use higher level APIs, like the
 * one provided by ConfigManager.
