This may be necessary for some package installs if they wish to include

From #1067, there is a bit of ambiguity in the handling of config file
with vector input and multiple consecutive parameters. For example
```toml
option1=[3,4,5]
option1=[4,5,6]
```
Currently this is handled as if it were
```toml
option1=[3,4,5,4,5,6]
```
But this could be confusing in the case where the input was referring to
a vector of vectors.
This PR adds a separator in the sequence to separate the vector so they
are two vectors of 3 elements each.
Will need to verify if this change has other side effects. It is a
pretty unusual situation.

Greetings, fellow CLI11 community!
We have just added the latest version of cli11 to [Conan
Center](https://conan.io/center/recipes/cli11?version=2.4.2) and thought
it would be a nice addition to include instructions on how to install
CLI11 via Conan in the book folder.
Please let me know if this is okay, or if you would prefer it placed
elsewhere.
**UPDATE**: Some extra information to be more clear about the used
command line and links:
I did not mention how to install/configure Conan, because both links to
conan.io and conan-center-index has all Conan documentation updated. For
instance: https://conan.io/downloads
The latest version of CLI11 available in Conan Center is 2.4.2:
- https://conan.io/center/recipes/cli11?version=2.4.2
or, can be found by running the conan command:
conan search "cli11"
The command `conan install --requires="cli11/[*]" --build=missing`
means:
* conan install: Install a package from a remote. By default, it points
to the official Conan Center
* --requires="cli11/[*]": Install the latest version of CLI11 available
in Conan Center
* --build=missing: In case not finding a pre-built package compatible,
build it from source then.
Regards!

This is follow up work to my previous series. I've tried to make the

The current installation documentation for FetchContent with CMake,
result in the following error Error:
```
CMake Error at /opt/homebrew/Cellar/cmake/3.28.1/share/cmake/Modules/FetchContent.cmake:1221 (message):
No content details recorded for cli11
Call Stack (most recent call first):
/opt/homebrew/Cellar/cmake/3.28.1/share/cmake/Modules/FetchContent.cmake:1740 (__FetchContent_getSavedDetails)
/opt/homebrew/Cellar/cmake/3.28.1/share/cmake/Modules/FetchContent.cmake:2033 (FetchContent_Populate)
CMakeLists.txt:17 (FetchContent_MakeAvailable)
```
The important part: ` No content details recorded for cli11`.
I have changed the documentation such that the part which covers
FetchContent works out of the box.
This adds a round trip test for config file generation to the fuzzer.
(the next step after this PR will be a fuzzer that verifies that the
round trip actually matches the results.
This change ended up requiring quite a few minor changes to fix the
ambiguities between the config file generation and config file reader.
1). There was a number of potential conflicts between positional names
and regular option names that could be triggered in config files, this
required a number of additional checks on the positional naming to
ensure no conflicts.
2). flag options with disable flag override can produce output results
that are not valid by themselves, resolving this required flag input to
be able to handle an array and output the original value set of results.
3). strings with non-printable characters could cause all sorts of chaos
in the config files. This was resolved by generating a binary string
conversion format and handling multiline comments and characters, and
handling escaped characters. Note; I think a better solution is to move
to fully supporting string formatting and escaping along with the binary
strings from TOML now that TOML 1.0 is finalized. That will not be this
PR though, maybe the next one.
4). Lot of ambiguities and edge cases in the string splitter, this was
reworked
5). handling of comments was not done well, especially comment characters in the
name of the option which is allowed.
6). non printable characters in the option naming. This would be weird
in practice but it also cause some big holes in the config file
generation, so the restricted character set for option naming was
expanded. (don't allow spaces or control characters).

flexibility to the the config processing, and potentially in other
options as well.
The reverse policy returns a vector but in reversed order from normal.
This is what we want in the config processing
