    """The session's configuration is managed through this object.

    The session can be configured using the SetParameter() method. However,
    sometimes when a certain parameter is modified, some code needs to run in
    response. For example, if the filename is modified, the profile must be
    recalculated.

    It is not sufficient to attach setter methods to every such parameter
    though, because there is no guarantee which order these parameters are
    configured. For example, suppose we want to set both the filename and the
    profile:

    session.SetParameter("filename", filename)
    session.SetParameter("profile", "nt/...")

    Since the profile is explicitly set we should not guess it, but if a simple
    set hook is used, there is no way for the _set_filename() hook to determine
    that the profile is explicitly given. So what will happen now is that the
    filename will be changed, then a profile will be autodetected, then it will
    be immediately overwritten with the user set profile.

    To avoid this issue we use a context manager to essentially group
    SetParameter() calls into an indivisible unit. The hooks are all run _after_
    all the parameters are set:

    with session:
        session.SetParameter("filename", filename)
        session.SetParameter("profile", "nt/...")

    Now the _set_filename() hook can see that the profile is explicitly set so
    it should not be auto-detected.

    Upon entering the context manager, we create a new temporary place to store
    configuration parameters. Then, when exiting the context manager we ensure
    that those parameters with hooks are called. The hooks are passed the newly
    set parameters. Each hook returns the value that will actually be set in the
    session (so the hook may actually modify the value).
