 *     The default theme function name is the theme hook prefixed by either

 *     defined, 'template' is not used.
 *   - 'template': The filename of the template generating output for this

 *     not specified in a later one, then the previous definition is kept.
 *   - 'render element': The renderable element for this theme hook as defined
 *     in hook_theme(). If there is more than one implementation and
 *     'render element' is not specified in a later one, then the previous
 *     definition is kept.
 *   - 'preprocess functions': See theme() for detailed documentation.
 *   - 'process functions': See theme() for detailed documentation.
 * @param $name
 *   The name of the module, theme engine, base theme engine, theme or base
 *   theme implementing hook_theme().
 * @param $type
 *   One of 'module', 'theme_engine', 'base_theme_engine', 'theme', or
 *   'base_theme'. Unlike regular hooks that can only be implemented by modules,
 *   each of these can implement hook_theme(). _theme_process_registry() is
 *   called in aforementioned order and new entries override older ones. For
 *   example, if a theme hook is both defined by a module and a theme, then the
 *   definition in the theme will be used.
 * @param $theme
 *   The loaded $theme object as returned from list_themes().
 * @param $path
 *   The directory where $name is. For example, modules/system or

 *   is a real need. It's purpose is similar to template_preprocess().
 *
 * - MODULE_preprocess_HOOK(&$variables)
 *   This is for modules that want to alter or provide extra variables for
 *   theming hooks not registered to itself. For example, if a module named
 *   "foo" wanted to alter the $classes_array variable for the hook "node" a
 *   preprocess function of foo_preprocess_node() can be created to intercept
 *   and alter the variable.
 *
 * - ENGINE_engine_preprocess(&$variables)
 *   This function should only be implemented by theme engines and exists
 *   so that it can set necessary variables for all hooks.
 *
 * - ENGINE_engine_preprocess_HOOK(&$variables)
 *   This is the same as the previous function, but it is called for a single
 *   theming hook.
 *
 * - THEME_preprocess(&$variables)
 *   This is for themes that want to alter or provide extra variables. For
 *   example, if a theme named "foo" wanted to alter the $classes_array variable
 *   for the hook "node" a preprocess function of foo_preprocess_node() can be
 *   created to intercept and alter the variable.
 *
 * - THEME_preprocess_HOOK(&$variables)
 *   The same applies from the previous function, but it is called for a
 *   specific hook.
 *
 * - template_process(&$variables)
 *   This sets a default set of variables for all template implementations.
 *
 * - template_process_HOOK(&$variables)
 *   This is the first processor called specific to the hook; it should be
 *   implemented by the module that registers it.
 *
 * - MODULE_process(&$variables)
 *   This will be called for all templates; it should only be used if there
 *   is a real need. It's purpose is similar to template_process().
 *
 * - MODULE_process_HOOK(&$variables)
 *   This is for modules that want to alter or provide extra variables for
 *   theming hooks not registered to itself. For example, if a module named
 *   "foo" wanted to alter the $classes_array variable for the hook "node" a
 *   process function of foo_process_node() can be created to intercept
 *   and alter the variable.
 *
 * - ENGINE_engine_process(&$variables)
 *   This function should only be implemented by theme engines and exists
 *   so that it can set necessary variables for all hooks.
 *
 * - ENGINE_engine_process_HOOK(&$variables)
 *   This is the same as the previous function, but it is called for a single
 *   theming hook.
 *
 * - ENGINE_process(&$variables)
 *   This is meant to be used by themes that utilize a theme engine. It is
 *   provided so that the processor is not locked into a specific theme.
 *   This makes it easy to share and transport code but theme authors must be
 *   careful to prevent fatal re-declaration errors when using sub-themes that
 *   have their own processor named exactly the same as its base theme. In
 *   the default theme engine (PHPTemplate), sub-themes will load their own
 *   template.php file in addition to the one used for its parent theme. This
 *   increases the risk for these errors. A good practice is to use the engine
 *   name for the base theme and the theme name for the sub-themes to minimize
 *   this possibility.
 *
 * - ENGINE_process_HOOK(&$variables)
 *   The same applies from the previous function, but it is called for a
 *   specific hook.
 *
 * - THEME_process(&$variables)
 *   These functions are based upon the raw theme; they should primarily be
 *   used by themes that do not use an engine or by sub-themes. It serves the
 *   same purpose as ENGINE_process().
 *
 * - THEME_process_HOOK(&$variables)
 *   The same applies from the previous function, but it is called for a
 *   specific hook.
 *
 * If the implementation is a function, only the hook-specific preprocess
 * and process functions (the ones ending in _HOOK) are called from the
 * above list. This is because theme hooks with function implementations
 * need to be fast, and calling the non-hook-specific preprocess and process
 * functions for them would incur a noticeable performance penalty.
 *
 * There are two special variables that these preprocess and process functions
 * can set:
 *   'theme_hook_suggestion' and 'theme_hook_suggestions'. These will be merged
 *   together to form a list of 'suggested' alternate hooks to use, in
 *   reverse order of priority. theme_hook_suggestion will always be a higher
 *   priority than items in theme_hook_suggestions. theme() will use the
 *   highest priority implementation that exists. If none exists, theme() will
 *   use the implementation for the theme hook it was called with. These
 *   suggestions are similar to and are used for similar reasons as calling
 *   theme() with an array as the $hook parameter (see below). The difference
 *   is whether the suggestions are determined by the code that calls theme() or
 *   by a preprocess or process function.
 *
 * @param $hook
 *   The name of the theme hook to call. If the name contains a
 *   double-underscore ('__') and there isn't an implementation for the full
 *   name, the part before the '__' is checked. This allows a fallback to a more
 *   generic implementation. For example, if theme('links__node', ...) is
 *   called, but there is no implementation of that hook, then the 'links'
 *   implementation is used. This process is iterative, so if
 *   theme('links__contextual__node', ...) is called, theme() checks for the
 *   following implementations, and uses the first one that exists:
 *   - links__contextual__node
 *   - links__contextual
 *   - links
 *   This allows themes to create specific theme implementations for named
 *   objects and contexts of otherwise generic theme hooks. The $hook parameter
 *   may also be an array, in which case the first hook that has an
 *   implementation is used. This allows for the code that calls theme() to
 *   explicitly specify the fallback order in a situation where using the '__'
 *   convention is not desired or insufficient.
 *
 * @param $variables
 *   An associative array of variables to merge with defaults from the theme
 *   registry, pass to preprocess and process functions for modification, and
 *   finally, pass to the function or template implementing the theme hook.
 *   Alternatively, this can be a renderable array, in which case, its properties
 *   are mapped to variables expected by the theme hook implementations.
 *
 * @return
 *   An HTML string that generates the themed output.
