///
/// In normal circumstances, you should use either version the
/// get_keyval function. Both of them look for the C string "key"
/// in the C++ string "conf", and assign the corresponding value (if
/// available) to the variable "value" (first version), or assign as
/// many values as found to the vector "values" (second version).
///
/// If "key" is found but no value is associated to it, the default
/// value is provided (either one copy or as many copies as the
/// current length of the vector "values" specifies). A message
/// will print, unless parse_mode is equal to parse_silent. The
/// return value of both forms of get_keyval is true if "key" is
/// found (with or without value), and false when "key" is absent in
/// the string "conf". If there is more than one instance of the
/// keyword, a warning will be raised; instead, to loop over
/// multiple instances key_lookup() should be invoked directly.
///
/// If you introduce a new data type, add two new instances of this
/// functions, or insert this type in the \link colvarvalue \endlink
/// wrapper class (colvarvalue.h).
