/// This library defines how to read a test specification from a Yaml
/// file. We expect specifications written in this format:
///
///    dependencies:
///      b: a
///      main: [b, expect]
///    flags:
///      - constant-update-2018
///
/// Where the dependencies section describe how modules depend on one another,
/// and the flags section show what flags are needed to run that specific test.
///
/// When defining dependencies:
///   - Each name corresponds to a module.
///   - Module names correlate to either a file, a folder, or a package.
///   - A map entry contains all the dependencies of a module, if any.
///   - If a module has a single dependency, it can be written as a single
///     value.
///
/// The logic in this library mostly treats these names as strings, separately
/// `loader.dart` is responsible for validating and attaching this dependency
/// information to a set of module definitions.
///
/// The framework is agnostic of what the flags are, but at this time we only
/// use the name of experimental language features. These are then used to
/// decide what options to pass to the tools that compile and run the tests.
