  ExitStatusMixins - Mixins for exceptions to associate distinguishing exit
                      status values

These mixins are defined based on the types of error that can occur.
  Each mixin is assigned a specific exit status value to disambiguate the
  error type via exit status of user-facing utilities.

The values start at 3 to provide distinction from common failure exit
  statuses (1 - something went wrong, 2 - argument error) that may be produced
  by user-facing utilities.

In accord with mixin best practices these mixins are to be specified
  *before* an exception's superclass exception in the exception's definition.
  This allows for a subsystem base exception to provide a subsystem-wide
  exit status and for subsystem specific exceptions to specialize the
  exit status as appropriate.

To avoid subclass proliferation simply to provide specific exit statuses
  one can chose to create a subsystem base exception using any of the
  ExitStatus hierachy classes (though, generally, one should probably only
  use ExitStatus itself) and provide a specific exit status for an exception
  at instantiation by passing any of the ExitStatus hierarchy classes as the
  'exitStatus' instantiation parameter.
