// Flag Tags provide a way to attach arbitrary textual tags to gflags in
// a global registry. Kudu uses the following flag tags:
//
// - "stable":
//         These flags are considered user-facing APIs. Therefore, the
//         semantics of the flag should not be changed except between major
//         versions. Similarly, they must not be removed except between major
//         versions.
//
// - "evolving":
//         These flags are considered user-facing APIs, but are not yet
//         locked down. For example, they may pertain to a newly introduced
//         feature that is still being actively developed. These may be changed
//         between minor versions, but should be suitably release-noted.
//
//         This is the default assumed stability level, but can be tagged
//         if you'd like to make it explicit.
//
// - "experimental":
//         These flags are considered user-facing APIs, but are related to
//         an experimental feature, or otherwise likely to change or be
//         removed at any point. Users should not expect any compatibility
//         of these flags.
//
//         Users must pass --unlock_experimental_flags to use any of these
//         flags.
//
// - "hidden":
//         These flags are for internal use only (e.g. testing) and should
//         not be included in user-facing documentation.
//
// - "advanced":
//         These flags are for advanced users or debugging purposes. While
//         they aren't likely to be actively harmful (see "unsafe" below),
//         they're also likely to be used only rarely and should be relegated
//         to more detailed sections of documentation.
//
// - "unsafe":
//         These flags are for internal use only (e.g. testing), and changing
//         them away from the defaults may result in arbitrarily bad things
//         happening. These flags are automatically excluded from user-facing
//         documentation even if they are not also marked 'hidden'.
//
//         Users must pass --unlock_unsafe_flags to use any of these
//         flags.
//
// - "runtime":
//         These flags can be safely changed at runtime via an RPC to the
//         server. Changing a flag at runtime that does not have this tag is allowed
//         only if the user specifies a "force_unsafe_change" flag in the RPC.
//
//         NOTE: because gflags are simple global variables, it's important to
//         think very carefully before tagging a flag with 'runtime'. In particular,
//         if a string-type flag is marked 'runtime', you should never access it
//         using the raw 'FLAGS_foo_bar' name. Instead, you must use the
//         google::GetCommandLineFlagInfo(...) API to make a copy of the flag value
//         under a lock. Otherwise, the 'std::string' instance could be mutated
//         underneath the reader causing a crash.
//
//         For primitive-type flags, we assume that reading a variable is atomic.
//         That is to say that a reader will either see the old value or the new
//         one, but not some invalid value. However, for the runtime change to
//         have any effect, you must be sure to use the FLAGS_foo_bar variable directly
//         rather than initializing some instance variable during program startup.
//
// A given flag may have zero or more tags associated with it. The system does
// not make any attempt to check integrity of the tags - for example, it allows
// you to mark a flag as both stable and unstable, even though this makes no
// real sense. Nevertheless, you should strive to meet the following requirements:
//
// - A flag should have exactly no more than one of stable/evolving/experimental
//   indicating its stability. 'evolving' is considered the default.
// - A flag should have no more than one of advanced/hidden indicating visibility
//   in documentation. If neither is specified, the flag will be in the main
//   section of the documentation.
// - It is likely that most 'experimental' flags will also be 'advanced' or 'hidden',
//   and that 'stable' flags are not likely to be 'hidden' or 'unsafe'.
//
// To add a tag to a flag, use the TAG_FLAG macro. For example:
//
//  DEFINE_bool(sometimes_crash, false, "This flag makes Kudu crash a lot");
//  TAG_FLAG(sometimes_crash, unsafe);
//  TAG_FLAG(sometimes_crash, runtime);
//
// To fetch the list of tags associated with a flag, use 'GetFlagTags'.
