/**
 * @page howtoDataPrinters Printing Data
 *
 * Data printers allows to serialize internal representation of a data tree in a specific format. libyang
 * supports the following data formats for printing:
 *
 * - XML
 *
 *   Basic format as specified in rules of mapping YANG modeled data to XML in
 *   [RFC 6020](http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6020).
 *
 * - JSON
 *
 *   The alternative data format available in RESTCONF protocol. Specification of JSON encoding of data modeled by YANG
 *   can be found in [RFC 7951](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7951).
 *
 * - LYB
 *
 *   Proprietary binary format that is focused on performance. This format ignores most printing flags
 *   except for ::LYD_PRINT_SIBLINGS and ::LYD_PRINT_SHRINK (functionality differs from the text formats).
 *   In addition to storing the data, this format also stores all the default values and data node flags
 *   meaning the loaded data can be used directly without any revalidation (unless ::LYD_PRINT_SHRINK is used).
 *   Unlike text formats, LYB format has specific context restrictions:
 *      - The context used for parsing must contain and implement all modules, whose YANG data are instantiated in the LYB data.
 *      - These modules must also be in the same revisions and have the same set of enabled features as in the printer context.
 *   The ::LYD_PRINT_SHRINK and ::LYD_PARSE_LYB_SKIP_MODULE_CHECK flags further influence the context requirements.
 *
 * By default, both text formats are printed with indentation (formatting), which can be avoided by ::LYD_PRINT_SHRINK
 * [printer option](@ref dataprinterflags)). Other options adjust e.g. [with-defaults mode](@ref howtoDataWD).
 *
 * Besides the legacy functions from libyang 1.x (::lyd_print_clb(), ::lyd_print_fd(), ::lyd_print_file(), ::lyd_print_mem()
 * and ::lyd_print_path()) printing data into the specified output, there are also new functions using
 * [output handler](@ref howtoOutput) introduced in libyang 2.0. In contrast to
 * [schema printers](@ref howtoSchemaPrinters), there is no limit of the functionality and the functions can be used
 * interchangeable. The only think to note is that the new functions ::lyd_print_all() and ::lyd_print_tree() does not
 * accept ::LYD_PRINT_SIBLINGS [printer option](@ref dataprinterflags)) since this flag differentiate the functions
 * themselves.
 *
 * Functions List
 * --------------
 * - ::lyd_print_all()
 * - ::lyd_print_tree()
 * - ::lyd_print_mem()
 * - ::lyd_print_fd()
 * - ::lyd_print_file()
 * - ::lyd_print_path()
 * - ::lyd_print_clb()
