/**
 * Module for reading Property Lists (.plist) files
 * ------------------------------------------------
 * This module functions as a reader for Apple Property Lists (.plist files).
 * It supports both binary and xml formatted property lists.  It does not
 * support the legacy ASCII format.  Reading of Cocoa's Keyed Archives serialized
 * to binary property lists isn't supported either.
 *
 * Property Lists objects are represented by standard JS and Mozilla types,
 * namely:
 *
 * XML type            Cocoa Class    Returned type(s)
 * --------------------------------------------------------------------------
 * <true/> / <false/>  NSNumber       TYPE_PRIMITIVE    boolean
 * <integer> / <real>  NSNumber       TYPE_PRIMITIVE    number
 *                                    TYPE_INT64        String [1]
 * Not Available       NSNull         TYPE_PRIMITIVE    null   [2]
 *                                    TYPE_PRIMITIVE    undefined [3]
 * <date/>             NSDate         TYPE_DATE         Date
 * <data/>             NSData         TYPE_UINT8_ARRAY  Uint8Array
 * <array/>            NSArray        TYPE_ARRAY        Array
 * Not Available       NSSet          TYPE_ARRAY        Array  [2][4]
 * <dict/>             NSDictionary   TYPE_DICTIONARY   Map
 *
 * Use PropertyListUtils.getObjectType to detect the type of a Property list
 * object.
 *
 * -------------
 * 1) Property lists supports storing U/Int64 numbers, while JS can only handle
 *    numbers that are in this limits of float-64 (±2^53).  For numbers that
 *    do not outbound this limits, simple primitive number are always used.
 *    Otherwise, a String object.
 * 2) About NSNull and NSSet values: While the xml format has no support for
 *    representing null and set values, the documentation for the binary format
 *    states that it supports storing both types.  However, the Cocoa APIs for
 *    serializing property lists do not seem to support either types (test with
 *    NSPropertyListSerialization::propertyList:isValidForFormat). Furthermore,
 *    if an array or a dictionary (Map) contains a NSNull or a NSSet value, they cannot
 *    be serialized to a property list.
 *    As for usage within OS X, not surprisingly there's no known usage of
 *    storing either of these types in a property list.  It seems that, for now,
 *    Apple is keeping the features of binary and xml formats in sync, probably as
 *    long as the XML format is not officially deprecated.
 * 3) Not used anywhere.
 * 4) About NSSet representation: For the time being, we represent those
 *    theoretical NSSet objects the same way NSArray is represented.
 *    While this would most certainly work, it is not the right way to handle
 *    it.  A more correct representation for a set is a js generator, which would
 *    read the set lazily and has no indices semantics.

/**
   * Simple handler method to proxy calls to dict/Map objects to implement the
   * setAsLazyGetter API. With this, a value can be set as a function that will
   * evaluate its value and only be called when it's first retrieved.
   * @member _lazyGetters
   *         Set() object to hold keys invoking LazyGetter.
   * @method get
   *         Trap for getting property values. Ensures that if a lazyGetter is present
   *         as value for key, then the function is evaluated, the value is cached,
   *         and its value will be returned.
   * @param  target
   *         Target object. (dict/Map)
   * @param  name
   *         Name of operation to be invoked on target.
   * @param  key
   *         Key to be set, retrieved or deleted. Keys are checked for laziness.
   * @return Returns value of "name" property of target by default. Otherwise returns
   *         updated target.
