 * Define the navigation menus, and route page requests to code based on URLs.

 *
 * The Drupal routing system defines how Drupal responds to URLs passed to the
 * browser. The menu system, which depends on the routing system, is used for
 * navigation. The Menu UI module allows menus to be created in the user interface
 * as hierarchical lists of links.
 *
 * @section registering_paths Registering router paths
 * To register a path, you need to add lines similar to this in a
 * module.routing.yml file:
 * @code
 * block.admin_display:
 *   path: '/admin/structure/block'
 *   defaults:
 *     _content: '\Drupal\block\Controller\BlockListController::listing'
 *   requirements:
 *     _permission: 'administer blocks'
 * @endcode
 * @todo Add more information here, especially about controllers and what all
 *   the stuff in the routing.yml file means.
 *
 * @section Defining menu links
 * Once you have a route defined, you can use module.menu_links.yml to
 * define links for your module's paths in the main Navigation menu or other
 *
 * @todo The rest of this topic has not been reviewed or updated for Drupal 8.x
 *   and is not correct!
 * @todo It is quite likely that hook_menu() will be replaced with a different
 *   hook, configuration system, or plugin system before the 8.0 release.

 *
 * Drupal's menu system follows a simple hierarchy defined by paths.
 * Implementations of hook_menu() define menu items and assign them to
 * paths (which should be unique). The menu system aggregates these items
 * and determines the menu hierarchy from the paths. For example, if the
 * paths defined were a, a/b, e, a/b/c/d, f/g, and a/b/h, the menu system
 * would form the structure:
 * - a
 *   - a/b
 *     - a/b/c/d
 *     - a/b/h
 * - e
 * - f/g
 * Note that the number of elements in the path does not necessarily
 * determine the depth of the menu item in the tree.
 *
 * When responding to a page request, the menu system looks to see if the
 * path requested by the browser is registered as a menu item with a
 * callback. If not, the system searches up the menu tree for the most
 * complete match with a callback it can find. If the path a/b/i is
 * requested in the tree above, the callback for a/b would be used.
 *
 * The found callback function is called with any arguments specified
 * in the "page arguments" attribute of its menu item. The
 * attribute must be an array. After these arguments, any remaining
 * components of the path are appended as further arguments. In this
 * way, the callback for a/b above could respond to a request for
 * a/b/i differently than a request for a/b/j.

 *
 * For an illustration of this process, see page_example.module.
 *
 * Access to the callback functions is also protected by the menu system.
 * The "access callback" with an optional "access arguments" of each menu
 * item is called before the page callback proceeds. If this returns TRUE,
 * then access is granted; if FALSE, then access is denied. Default local task
 * menu items (see next paragraph) may omit this attribute to use the value
 * provided by the parent item.

 *
 * In the default Drupal interface, you will notice many links rendered as
 * tabs. These are known in the menu system as "local tasks", and they are
 * rendered as tabs by default, though other presentations are possible.
 * Local tasks function just as other menu items in most respects. It is
 * convention that the names of these tasks should be short verbs if
 * possible. In addition, a "default" local task should be provided for
 * each set. When visiting a local task's parent menu item, the default
 * local task will be rendered as if it is selected; this provides for a
 * normal tab user experience. This default task is special in that it
 * links not to its provided path, but to its parent item's path instead.
 * The default task's path is only used to place it appropriately in the
 * menu hierarchy.
 *
 * Everything described so far is stored in the menu_router table. The
 * menu_links table holds the visible menu links. By default these are
 * derived from the same hook_menu definitions, however you are free to
 * add more with menu_link_save().
