Display an infobox linking to the various topics related to this year.

We create a variable containing the name of the subtemplate containing data for our infobox. This data will be parsed into a HashTable. The keys of the hash are the sections of the "year in" topics, and each value is a link to the relevant page. The format of the data is:
;; key1 :: value1-1 :: value1-2
;; key2 :: value2-1
;; key3 :: value3-1 :: value3-2 :: value3-3
Et cetera. Each key starts with a double semicolon and may be followed by any number of values, separated from the key and from each other by double colons.

We also support multiple calendars, if they exist. The mechanism for choosing a template to transclude is similar to the data template: if the 'campaign' parameter has been specified, and if the page Template:Year in other calendars/{{{campaign}}} exists, then we transclude it. If {{{campaign}}} is unset or, or the template does not exist, we use Template:Year in other calendars/default.
