/**
 * @brief Application settings class.
 * @details The application settings class is responsible for interpretation of the initial application startup configuration and
 * reading and writing the application main settings.
 * The startup configuration is a string using the TOML format and is defined as follows:
 * @code
 * # Optional use of customized log handler
 * [LogHandler]
 * Class = ""      # Component class name of a custom logger (optional)
 * Path = ""       # Component module path of a custom logger (optional)
 * Tag = ""        # Program tag to use instead of the name SDV_LOG_<pid>
 * Filter = ""     # Lowest severity filter to use when logging (Trace, Debug, Info, Warning, Error, Fatal). Default severity
 *                 # level filter is Info (meaning Debug and Trace messages are not being stored).
 * ViewFilter = "" # Lowest severity filter to use when logging (Trace, Debug, Info, Warning, Error, Fatal). Default severity
 *                 # level filter is Error (meaning Debug, Trace, Info and Warning messages are not being shown).
 *
 * # Application behavior definition
 * # Mode = "Standalone"  (default) app->no RPC + core services + additional configurations allowed
 * # Mode = "External"    app->RPC client only + local services + target service(s) --> connection information through listener
 * # Mode = "Isolated"    app->RPC client only + local services + target service(s) --> connection information needed
 * # Mode = "Main"        app->RPC server + core services --> access key needed
 * # Mode = "Essential"   app->local services + additional configurations allowed
 * # Mode = "Maintenance" app->RPC client only + local services + maintenance service --> connection information needed + access key
 * # Instance = 1234
 * [Application]
 * Mode = "Main"
 * Instance = 1234         # Optional instance ID to be used with main and isolated applications. Has no influence on other
 *                         # applications. Default instance ID is 1000. The connection listener is using the instance ID to allow
 *                         # connections from an external application to the main application. Furthermore, the instance ID is
 *                         # used to locate the installation of SDV components. The location of the SDV components is relative to
 *                         # the executable (unless a target directory is supplied) added with the instance and the installations:
 *                         # &lt;exe_path&gt;/&lt;instance&gt;/&lt;installation&gt;
 * InstallDir = "./test"   # Optional custom installation directory to be used with main and isolated applications. Has no
 *                         # influence on other applications. The default location for installations is the location of the
 *                         # executable. Specifying a different directory will change the location of installations to
 *                         # &lt;install_directory&gt;/&lt;instance&gt;/&lt;installation&gt;
 *                         # NOTE The directory of the core library and the directory of the running executable are always added
 *                         # to the system if they contain an installation manifest.
 *
 * # Optional configuration that should be loaded (only for local applications).
 * Config = "abc.toml"
 *
 * #Console output
 * [Console]
 * Report = "Silent"       # Either "Silent", "Normal" or "Verbose" for no, normal or extensive messages.
 * RedirectMon = true      # When set, redirects messages to the console instead of the monitor application in main mode.
 *
 * [Connections]
 * Retries = 5              # The amount of retries when trying to connect (value between 3 and 30, default is 5).
 *
 * # Search directories
 * @endcode
 *
 * @todo Add config ignore list (e.g. platform.toml, vehicle_ifc.toml and vehicle_abstract.toml).
 * @todo Add dedicated config (rather than standard config) as startup param.
 * 
 * The settings file is a TOML file with the following structure:
 * @code
 * [Settings]
 * Version = 100
 * 
 * # The system configuration is divided into:
 * #  platform config     - containing all the components needed to interact with the OS,
 * #                        middleware, vehicle bus, Ethernet.
 * #  vehicle interface   - containing the vehicle bus interpretation components like data link
 * #                        based on DBC and devices for their abstraction.
 * #  vehicle abstraction - containing the vehicle abstraction services
 * # The configuration files are loaded exactly in that order, allowing the vehicle interface to
 * # depend on the platform and the vehicle abstraction to depend on the vehicle interface.
 * # The configurations are loaded if the PlatformConfig, VehIfcConfig and VehAbstrConfig keywords
 * # are present and describe a valid configuration file.
 * # A relative path is relative to the installation directory (being "exe_location/instance_id").
 * #
 * # Example:
 * #   PlatformConfig = "platform.toml"
 * #   VehIfcConfig = "vehicle_ifc.toml"
 * #   VehAbstrConfig = "vehicle_abstract.toml"
 * #
 * PlatformConfig = ""
 * VehIfcConfig = ""
 * VehAbstrConfig = ""
 * 
 * # The application config contains the configuration file that can be updated when services and
 * # apps are being added to the system (or being removed from the system). Load the application
 * # config by providing the "AppConfig" keyword as a string value. A relative path is relative to
 * # the installation directory (being "exe_location/instance_id").
 * #
 * # Example
 * #   AppConfig = "app_config.toml"
 * AppConfig = ""
 * 
 * # A list of zero or more listener definitions that should be instantiated during startup of the
 * # main application. If no listener definition is available, the default shared-memory listener 
 * # is being instantiated.
 * #
 * # [[Settings.Listener]]
 * # Name = ""
 * # [Settings.Listerner.Provider]
 * # Name = ""
 * # [Settings.Listener.IpcChannel]
 * 
 * # A list of zero or more client connections that should be instantiated during startup.
 * #
 * # [[Settings.Connection]]
 * # Name = ""
 * # [Settings.Connection.Provider]
 * # Name = ""
 * # [Settings.Listener.IpcChannel]
 * @endcode
