Added alphabetical sorting (python's own alphabetical sorting gives priority to uppercase letters) to the traverse() function.

Added an option to pecify the superContext for a MainHierarchicalParser, enabled debugging option also for Section and SectionManager classes in LocalBackend.

Added traversing capability to the Results object, added a new Exception class that is raised when a certain valid metainfo was not outputted by the parser.

Added a module for getting element information, allowed one to use startReTransform on SimpleMatchers with also named groups.

actual implementation is only done for JsonParseEventsWriterBackend

Some renamings in CacheService, better warnings when trying to use the wrong backend function for arrays.

Added unit conversion checking when pushing data to a metainfo which has unit specification. Fixed the printing order in the print_summary() function of local_backend.

Added a small debugging function that prints out the parsed quantities in a compact, tree-like fashion.

Added a small class that can be used to store the parsing results as numpy objects in a dictionary, added a path-agnostic way to get the metainfo file for a parser, added more optionality for mainFunction() call signature to allow the use of different backends.
