Recursively copies a table.
Specifically: for each entry, the value is deep copied and the key is not.
Entries provided by the __pairs metamethod are copied. Metatables are not
copied (unless enabled by options.copyMetatable).
options.copyMetatable
If enabled, deep copies the metatable of tables. Disabled by default.
options.reuseRef
If a table reference exists at two locations in the input, then this option
will allow the locations to share a reference in the output. Enabled by
default.

Extracts prefixed keys interleaved with numeric indexes from an arguments
table, and applies a transform to each key or index.
Used for template calls that support both prefixed and indexed params. See
Module:ParticipantTable/Starcraft, Module:GroupTableLeague for examples of how
it is used.
Example:
In the template call
{{Foo
|A
|p2=B
|C
|player4=D
}}
Table.mapArgumentsByPrefix(args, {'p', 'player'}, f)
will invoke
f(1, 1)

Extracts keys based on a passed `indexFromKey` function interleaved with numeric indexes
