## Interpolates a format string with the values from `a`.
##
## The `substitution`:idx: operator performs string substitutions in
## `formatstr` and returns a modified `formatstr`. This is often called
## `string interpolation`:idx:.
##
## This is best explained by an example:
##
## .. code-block:: nim
## "$1 eats $2." % ["The cat", "fish"]
##
## Results in:
##
## .. code-block:: nim
## "The cat eats fish."
##
## The substitution variables (the thing after the ``$``) are enumerated
## from 1 to ``a.len``.
## To produce a verbatim ``$``, use ``$$``.
## The notation ``$#`` can be used to refer to the next substitution
## variable:
##
## .. code-block:: nim
## "$# eats $#." % ["The cat", "fish"]
##
## Substitution variables can also be words (that is
## ``[A-Za-z_]+[A-Za-z0-9_]*``) in which case the arguments in `a` with even
## indices are keys and with odd indices are the corresponding values.
## An example:
##
## .. code-block:: nim
## "$animal eats $food." % ["animal", "The cat", "food", "fish"]
##
## Results in:
##
## .. code-block:: nim
## "The cat eats fish."
##
## The variables are compared with `cmpIgnoreStyle`. `ValueError` is
## raised if an ill-formed format string has been passed to the `%` operator.
