     * @short Represents the signature of an XPath function.

     * FunctionSignature represents and allows inspection of a function signature,
     * such as <tt>fn:string-join($arg1 as xs:string*, $arg2 as xs:string) as xs:string</tt>.
     * No XPath related languages allows polymorphism on the type of the arguments, only the
     * amount(arity) of the arguments. For example, <tt>fn:string() as xs:string</tt> and
     * <tt>fn:string($arg as item()?) as xs:string</tt> can happily co-exist, but
     * <tt>fn:string($arg as item()?) as xs:string</tt> and
     * <tt>fn:string($arg as xs:anyAtomicType?) as xs:string</tt> would be an error. This
     * fact is reflected by FunctionSignature that if minimumArguments() and maximumArguments()
     * are not equal, it means that this FunctionSignature represents several
     * function signatures.
