/**
* Defines a parameter for a build.
*
* <p>
* In Hudson, a user can configure a job to require parameters for a build.
* For example, imagine a test job that takes the bits to be tested as a parameter.
*
* <p>
* The actual meaning and the purpose of parameters are entirely up to users, so
* what the concrete parameter implmentation is pluggable. Write subclasses
* in a plugin and put {@link Extension} on the descriptor to register them.
*
* <p>
* Three classes are used to model build parameters. First is the
* {@link ParameterDescriptor}, which tells Hudson what kind of implementations are
* available. From {@link ParameterDescriptor#newInstance(StaplerRequest, JSONObject)},
* Hudson creates {@link ParameterDefinition}s based on the job configuration.
* For example, if the user defines two string parameters "database-type" and
* "appserver-type", we'll get two {@link StringParameterDefinition} instances
* with their respective names.
*
* <p>
* When a job is configured with {@link ParameterDefinition} (or more precisely,
* {@link ParametersDefinitionProperty}, which in turns retains {@link ParameterDefinition}s),
* user would have to enter the values for the defined build parameters.
* The {@link #createValue(StaplerRequest, JSONObject)} method is used to convert this
* form submission into {@link ParameterValue} objects, which are then accessible
* during a build.
*
*
*
* <h2>Persistence</h2>
* <p>
* Instances of {@link ParameterDefinition}s are persisted into job <tt>config.xml</tt>
* through XStream.
*
*
* <h2>Assocaited Views</h2>
* <h4>config.jelly</h4>
* <p>
* {@link ParameterDefinition} class uses <tt>config.jelly</tt> to provide contribute a form
* fragment in the job configuration screen. Values entered there is fed back to
* {@link ParameterDescriptor#newInstance(StaplerRequest, JSONObject)} to create {@link ParameterDefinition}s.
*
* <h4>index.jelly</h4>
* The <tt>index.jelly</tt> view contributes a form fragment in the page where the user
* enters actual values of parameters for a build. The result of this form submission
* is then fed to {@link ParameterDefinition#createValue(StaplerRequest, JSONObject)} to
* create {@link ParameterValue}s.
*
* TODO: what Jelly pages does this object need for rendering UI?
* TODO: {@link ParameterValue} needs to have some mechanism to expose values to the build
* @see StringParameterDefinition
