---- NORMAL HTML TAGS ----
Tags are very strict on how they want to start, but loose on how they end.
The start must strictly follow <[tAgNaMe](%s|>) with no room for whitespace in
the tag's name, but may then flow as they want afterwards, making
<div\nclass\n=\n"\nerror\n"\n> valid

There's no sense of escaping < or >
E.g.
 <div class="error\>"> will end at \> despite it being inside a quote
 <div class="<span class="error">error</span>"> will not process the larger div

If a tag has no end, it will consume all text instead of not processing

---- NOPROCESSING TAGS (nowiki, pre, syntaxhighlight, source, etc.) ----
(In most comments, <source> will not be mentioned. This is because it is the
deprecated version of <syntaxhighlight>)

No-Processing tags have some interesting differences to the above rules.
For example, their syntax is a lot stricter. While an opening tag appears to
follow the same set of rules, A closing tag can't have any sort of extra
formatting period. While </div a/a> is valid, </nowiki a/a> isn't - only
newlines and spaces/tabs are allowed in closing tags.
Note that, even though <pre> tags cause a visual change when the ending tag has
extra formatting, it won't cause the no-processing effects. For some reason, the
format must be strict for that to apply.

Both the content inside the tag pair and the content inside each side of the
pair is not processed. E.g. <nowiki |}}>|}}</nowiki> would have both of the |}}
escaped in practice.

When something in the code is referenced to as a "Nowiki Tag", it means a tag
which causes wiki text to not be processed, which includes <nowiki>, <pre>,
and <syntaxhighlight>

Since we only care about these tags, we can ignore the idea of an intercepting
tag preventing processing, and just go straight for the first ending we can find
If there is no ending to find, the tag will NOT consume the rest of the text in
terms of processing behaviour (though <pre> will appear to have an effect).
Even if there is no end of the tag, the content inside the opening half will
still be unprocessed, meaning {{X20|<nowiki }}>}} wouldn't end at the first }}
despite there being no ending to the tag.

Note that there are some tags, like <math>, which also function like <nowiki>
which are included in this aswell. Some other tags, like <ref>, have far too
unpredictable behaviour to be handled currently (they'd have to be split and
processed as something seperate - its complicated, but maybe not impossible.)
I suspect that every tag listed in [[Special:Version]] may behave somewhat like
this, but that's far too many cases worth checking for rarely used tags that may
not even have a good reason to contain {{ or }} anyways, so we leave them alone.

---- HTML COMMENTS AND INCLUDEONLY ----
HTML Comments are about as basic as it could get for this
Start at <!--, end at -->, no extra conditions. Simple enough
If a comment has no end, it will eat all text instead of not being processed

includeonly tags function mostly like a regular nowiki tag, with the exception
that the tag will actually consume all future text if not given an ending as
opposed to simply giving up and not changing anything. Due to complications and
the fact that this is far less likely to be present on a page, aswell as being
something that may not want to be escaped, includeonly tags are ignored during
our processing

The goal of this function is to escape all text that wouldn't be parsed if it
was preprocessed (see above implementation notes).

Using keepComments will keep all HTML comments instead of removing them. They
will still be escaped regardless to avoid processing errors

--[=[ Implementation notes
This function is an alternative to Transcluder's getParameters which considers
the potential for a singular { or } or other odd syntax that %b doesn't like to
be in a parameter's value.

When handling the difference between {{ and {{{, mediawiki will attempt to match
as many sequences of {{{ as possible before matching a {{
E.g.
 {{{{A}}}} -> { {{{A}}} }
 {{{{{{{{Text|A}}}}}}}} -> {{ {{{ {{{Text|A}}} }}} }}
If there aren't enough triple braces on both sides, the parser will compromise
for a template interpretation.
E.g.
 {{{{A}} }} -> {{ {{ A }} }}

While there are technically concerns about things such as wikilinks breaking
template processing (E.g. {{[[}}]]}} doesn't stop at the first }}), it shouldn't
be our job to process inputs perfectly when the input has garbage ({ / } isn't
legal in titles anyways, so if something's unmatched in a wikilink, it's
guaranteed GIGO)

Setting dontEscape will prevent running the input text through EET. Avoid
setting this to true if you don't have to set it.

Returned values:
A table of all templates. Template data goes as follows:
 Text: The raw text of the template
 Name: The name of the template
 Args: A list of arguments
 Children: A list of immediate template children
