/**
 * @page howtoSchemaParsers Parsing YANG Modules
 *
 * YANG module parsers allow to read YANG module from a specific format. libyang supports the following module formats:
 *
 * - YANG
 *
 *   Basic YANG schemas format described in [RFC 6020](http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6020) and
 *   [RFC 7951](http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7951) (so both YANG 1.0 and YANG 1.1 versions are supported).
 *
 * - YIN
 *
 *   Alternative XML-based format to YANG - YANG Independent Notation. The details can be found in
 *   [RFC 6020](http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6020#section-11) and
 *   [RFC 7951](http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7951#section-13).
 *
 * When the [context](@ref howtoContext) is created, it already contains the following YANG modules, which
 * are implemented internally by libyang:
 * - ietf-yang-metadata@2016-08-05
 * - yang@2020-06-17
 * - ietf-inet-types@2013-07-15
 * - ietf-yang-types@2013-07-15
 * - ietf-datastores@2018-02-14
 * - ietf-yang-library@2019-01-04
 *
 * The `yang` module is the libyang's internal module to provide namespace and definitions of for various YANG
 * attributes described in [RFC 7951](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6243) (such as `insert` attribute for
 * edit-config's data).
 *
 * Other modules can be added to the context manually with the functions listed below. Besides them,
 * it is also possible to use ::ly_ctx_load_module() which tries to find the required module automatically - using
 * ::ly_module_imp_clb or automatic search in working directory and in the context's search directories. For details, see
 * [how the context works](@ref howtoContext).
 *
 * YANG modules are loaded in two steps. First, the input YANG/YIN data are parsed into \b lysp_* structures that reflect
 * the structure of the input module and submodule(s). Mostly just syntax checks are done, no reference or type checking is
 * performed in this step. If the module is supposed to be implemented, not just imported by another module, the second step
 * is to compile it. The compiled tree may significantly differ from the source (parsed) tree structure. All the references
 * are resolved, groupings are instantiated, types are resolved (and compiled by joining all the relevant restrictions
 * when derived from another types) and many other syntactical checks are done.
 *
 * There is the main parsing function ::lys_parse() working with the libyang [input handler](@ref howtoInput). However,
 * to simplify some of the use-cases, it is also possible to use other functions accepting input data from various sources.
 *
 * Functions List
 * --------------
 * - ::lys_parse()
 * - ::lys_parse_mem()
 * - ::lys_parse_fd()
 * - ::lys_parse_path()
 *
 * - ::lys_search_localfile()
 * - ::ly_ctx_set_module_imp_clb()
 * - ::ly_ctx_load_module()
