(** The config file: what the user wants by default, and where each value came
    from.

    Owns precedence and provenance and nothing else. Never reads the filesystem
    -- callers hand it text -- so it is as testable as the language table.

    A config file is OPTIONAL. With none, colitur behaves exactly as it does
    without this feature, except that names resolve through the default
    language. *)

(** [lang], [template] and [format] are each set from a single field. A
    repeated key is LAST-WINS -- the opposite direction from
    {!Colitur_kernel.Overlay_ini.get}'s first-wins over the same [section]
    type -- because the natural reading of a config file a user edited by
    hand and appended to is "the bottom line is the one that took effect".
    This holds whether the repeat is within one [\[defaults\]] block or
    across two of them: every section named [defaults] is merged, not only
    the first, the same duplicate-section policy {!Lang.of_string} documents
    for its own sections -- the two modules read the same underlying format
    and must not disagree about what a repeated header means. *)

(** Which citation style to render a reference in: a language CODE, looked
    up the same way {!lang} is, or a path -- but a DIFFERENT axis from
    {!lang}: a language file's own [\[sigla\]] section IS a style
    ({!Colitur_citation.Render.style_of_fields}), and this key SELECTS
    which file's [\[sigla\]] section supplies it, independently of which
    file's other sections supply names elsewhere (a booklet may want
    Polish names but Latin-convention citations). Same last-wins duplicate
    policy as {!lang}. *)
val sigla_style : t -> string option

(** [full] or [abbr] -- overrides the style's own [book] setting rather than
    replacing the style outright, so a chosen style's punctuation survives
    even when the book form is overridden ({!Colitur_citation.Render.with_book}).
    Same last-wins duplicate policy as {!lang}. *)
val sigla_book : t -> string option

(** The name of a section in [lang/traditions.ini] -- which BOOK a reference
    DENOTES (Vulgate numbering by default), a different question again from
    both {!sigla_style} (how a reference is WRITTEN) and {!lang} (what
    everything else is CALLED): naming and numbering both vary by
    convention, but not together. Same last-wins duplicate policy as
    {!lang}. *)
val sigla_tradition : t -> string option

(** Keys present in the [\[defaults\]] section that this build does not
    understand. Reported, never fatal: a config written for a newer colitur
    must still work on an older one, but silently ignoring a line the user
    wrote is how a typo becomes invisible. *)
val unknown_keys : t -> string list

(** Section names other than [\[defaults\]], reported separately from
    {!unknown_keys} so the CLI can word the two warnings differently (a
    misspelled section, e.g. [\[deafults\]], versus a misspelled key inside a
    recognised one). Also never fatal, and never silent: a section this build
    does not recognise is exactly the highest-value typo this feature exists
    to catch, because it silently discards the whole section -- [lang] and
    everything else in it -- with no other way for the user to notice. *)
val unknown_sections : t -> string list

(** [resolve ~flag ~config ~default] returns [(value, source)] with source one of
