Subject: Implemented primitive optional parameter support for external
 functions * renamed FunctionExternalTextFormatter into
 FunctionExternalCommand ** the goal is to provide a general interface to a
 variety of external commands *** e.g. not just text formatters but system
 utilities for file management and so on ** this requires the stdin parameter
 to be optional as not all external commands require stdin input * implemented
 "filter_derived" helper template to determine amount of optional parameters
 ** optional parameters are defined as "boost::optional" specializations ***
 they in turn can be detected by checking if
 "boost::optional_detail::optional_tag" is a base class *
 "callConstructDocument" member method of "FunctionBase" performs additional
 bounds checking of parameter vector * "boost::optional<std::string>" specific
 member overload was added to "XObjectValue" helper class ** we will have to
 provide full specializations for all optional types as C++ prohibits partial
 member function template specialization * renamed the external function in
 "PlattformGuard" * changed README.md and test cases accordingly
