//
// Description:
//    IfdKey is a Key, i.e., something that knows operator== and,
//    maybe someday, operator<.  Subclasses, like IfdIntKey and IfdStrKey
//    allow keys based on integer and string values.  Another derivative,
//    IfdTypeKey<T> serves as mapping between C++ static classes and
//    Keys.  Finally, IfdKey wroks with its derivative, IfdCompositeKey,
//    to form a composite pattern that allows lists, trees, etc. of
//    keys to be formed and yet have an op== defined on it.
//
//    Usage:  Keys do not know op=, i.e., assignemnt, and I have supressed
//    the copy ctor.  You should pass them by reference or poiner.  There
//    is a clone() method, so a consumer can effective copy a key.  Note
//    that this means that the caller retains ownership of the key, and
//    the "consumer" that takes a copy *owns* the copy.
