/** Represents optional values. Instances of `Option`
 *  are either an instance of $some or the object $none.
 *
 *  The most idiomatic way to use an $option instance is to treat it
 *  as a collection or monad and use `map`,`flatMap`, `filter`, or
 *  `foreach`:
 *
 *  {{{
 *  val name: Option[String] = request getParameter "name"
 *  val upper = name map { _.trim } filter { _.length != 0 } map { _.toUpperCase }
 *  println(upper getOrElse "")
 *  }}}
 *
 *  Note that this is equivalent to {{{
 *  val upper = for {
 *    name <- request getParameter "name"
 *    trimmed <- Some(name.trim)
 *    upper <- Some(trimmed.toUpperCase) if trimmed.length != 0
 *  } yield upper
 *  println(upper getOrElse "")
 *  }}}
 *
 *  Because of how for comprehension works, if $none is returned
 *  from `request.getParameter`, the entire expression results in
 *  $none
 *
 *  This allows for sophisticated chaining of $option values without
 *  having to check for the existence of a value.
 *
 *  A less-idiomatic way to use $option values is via pattern matching: {{{
 *  val nameMaybe = request getParameter "name"
 *  nameMaybe match {
 *    case Some(name) =>
 *      println(name.trim.toUppercase)
 *    case None =>
 *      println("No name value")
 *  }
 *  }}}
 *
 *  @note Many of the methods in here are duplicative with those
 *  in the Traversable hierarchy, but they are duplicated for a reason:
 *  the implicit conversion tends to leave one with an Iterable in
 *  situations where one could have retained an Option.
