/**
 * Generates themed output.
 *
 * All requests for themed output must go through this function. It examines
 * the request and routes it to the appropriate
 * @link themeable theme function or template @endlink, by checking the theme
 * registry.
 *
 * Most commonly, the first argument to this function is the name of the theme
 * hook. For instance, to theme a taxonomy term, the theme hook name is
 * 'taxonomy_term'. Modules register theme hooks within a hook_theme()
 * implementation and provide a default implementation via a function named
 * theme_HOOK() (e.g., theme_taxonomy_term()) or via a template file named
 * according to the value of the 'template' key registered with the theme hook
 * (see hook_theme() for details). Default templates are implemented with the
 * PHPTemplate rendering engine and are named the same as the theme hook, with
 * underscores changed to hyphens, so for the 'taxonomy_term' theme hook, the
 * default template is 'taxonomy-term.tpl.php'.
 *
 * Themes may also register new theme hooks within a hook_theme()
 * implementation, but it is more common for themes to override default
 * implementations provided by modules than to register entirely new theme
 * hooks. Themes can override a default implementation by implementing a
 * function named THEME_HOOK() (for example, the 'bartik' theme overrides the
 * default implementation of the 'menu_tree' theme hook by implementing a
 * bartik_menu_tree() function), or by adding a template file within its folder
 * structure that follows the template naming structure used by the theme's
 * rendering engine (for example, since the Bartik theme uses the PHPTemplate
 * rendering engine, it overrides the default implementation of the 'page' theme
 * hook by containing a 'page.tpl.php' file within its folder structure).
 *
 * If the implementation is a template file, several functions are called
 * before the template file is invoked, to modify the $variables array. These
 * fall into the "preprocessing" phase and the "processing" phase, and are
 * executed (if they exist), in the following order (note that in the following
 * list, HOOK indicates the theme hook name, MODULE indicates a module name,
 * THEME indicates a theme name, and ENGINE indicates a theme engine name):
 * - template_preprocess(&$variables, $hook): Creates a default set of variables
 *   for all theme hooks with template implementations.
 * - template_preprocess_HOOK(&$variables): Should be implemented by the module
 *   that registers the theme hook, to set up default variables.
 * - MODULE_preprocess(&$variables, $hook): hook_preprocess() is invoked on all
 *   implementing modules.
 * - MODULE_preprocess_HOOK(&$variables): hook_preprocess_HOOK() is invoked on
 *   all implementing modules, so that modules that didn't define the theme hook
 *   can alter the variables.
 * - ENGINE_engine_preprocess(&$variables, $hook): Allows the theme engine to
 *   set necessary variables for all theme hooks with template implementations.
 * - ENGINE_engine_preprocess_HOOK(&$variables): Allows the theme engine to set
 *   necessary variables for the particular theme hook.
 * - THEME_preprocess(&$variables, $hook): Allows the theme to set necessary
 *   variables for all theme hooks with template implementations.
 * - THEME_preprocess_HOOK(&$variables): Allows the theme to set necessary
 *   variables specific to the particular theme hook.
 * - template_process(&$variables, $hook): Creates an additional set of default
 *   variables for all theme hooks with template implementations. The variables
 *   created in this function are derived from ones created by
 *   template_preprocess(), but potentially altered by the other preprocess
 *   functions listed above. For example, any preprocess function can add to or
 *   modify the $variables['attributes_array'] variable, and after all of them
 *   have finished executing, template_process() flattens it into a
 *   $variables['attributes'] string for convenient use by templates.
 * - template_process_HOOK(&$variables): Should be implemented by the module
 *   that registers the theme hook, if it needs to perform additional variable
 *   processing after all preprocess functions have finished.
 * - MODULE_process(&$variables, $hook): hook_process() is invoked on all
 *   implementing modules.
 * - MODULE_process_HOOK(&$variables): hook_process_HOOK() is invoked on
 *   on all implementing modules, so that modules that didn't define the theme
 *   hook can alter the variables.
 * - ENGINE_engine_process(&$variables, $hook): Allows the theme engine to
 *   process variables for all theme hooks with template implementations.
 * - ENGINE_engine_process_HOOK(&$variables): Allows the theme engine to process
 *   the variables specific to the theme hook.
 * - THEME_process(&$variables, $hook):  Allows the theme to process the
 *   variables for all theme hooks with template implementations.
 * - THEME_process_HOOK(&$variables):  Allows the theme to process the
 *   variables specific to the theme hook.
 *
 * If the implementation is a function, only the theme-hook-specific preprocess
 * and process functions (the ones ending in _HOOK) are called from the
 * list above. This is because theme hooks with function implementations
 * need to be fast, and calling the non-theme-hook-specific preprocess and
 * process functions for them would incur a noticeable performance penalty.
 *
 * There are two special variables that these preprocess and process functions
 * can set: 'theme_hook_suggestion' and 'theme_hook_suggestions'. These will be
 * merged together to form a list of 'suggested' alternate theme hooks to use,
 * in reverse order of priority. theme_hook_suggestion will always be a higher
 * priority than items in theme_hook_suggestions. theme() will use the
 * highest priority implementation that exists. If none exists, theme() will
 * use the implementation for the theme hook it was called with. These
 * suggestions are similar to and are used for similar reasons as calling
 * theme() with an array as the $hook parameter (see below). The difference
 * is whether the suggestions are determined by the code that calls theme() or
 * by a preprocess or process function.
 *
 * @param $hook
 *   The name of the theme hook to call. If the name contains a
 *   double-underscore ('__') and there isn't an implementation for the full
 *   name, the part before the '__' is checked. This allows a fallback to a more
 *   generic implementation. For example, if theme('links__node', ...) is
 *   called, but there is no implementation of that theme hook, then the 'links'
 *   implementation is used. This process is iterative, so if
 *   theme('links__contextual__node', ...) is called, theme() checks for the
 *   following implementations, and uses the first one that exists:
 *   - links__contextual__node
 *   - links__contextual
 *   - links
 *   This allows themes to create specific theme implementations for named
 *   objects and contexts of otherwise generic theme hooks. The $hook parameter
 *   may also be an array, in which case the first theme hook that has an
 *   implementation is used. This allows for the code that calls theme() to
 *   explicitly specify the fallback order in a situation where using the '__'
 *   convention is not desired or is insufficient.
 * @param $variables
 *   An associative array of variables to merge with defaults from the theme
 *   registry, pass to preprocess and process functions for modification, and
 *   finally, pass to the function or template implementing the theme hook.
 *   Alternatively, this can be a renderable array, in which case, its
 *   properties are mapped to variables expected by the theme hook
 *   implementations.
 *
 * @return
 *   An HTML string representing the themed output.
 *
 * @see themeable
 * @see hook_theme()
 * @see template_preprocess()
 * @see template_process()
