     These methods provide facilities to manage (create and destroy)
     keys within the Windows registry. The methods provide different
     ways to specify the key, using either a collection of strings or a
     previously resolved registry path ('RegistryKeyPath'). The latter
     are typically used internally within the package and are available
     for users who apply operations repeatedly to the same key. The
     simple string form is more convenient for interactive use.

     'flushRegistryKey' can be used to force any changes to be
     immediately reflected in the registry.

     _p_a_t_h = "_c_h_a_r_a_c_t_e_r", _k_e_y = "_A_N_Y" specifies the path to the new key
          as either a string or a character vector of strings.


     _p_a_t_h = "_R_e_g_i_s_t_r_y_K_e_y_P_a_t_h", _k_e_y = "_m_i_s_s_i_n_g" specifies the path and
          name of the new key as   a 'RegistryKeyPath' object.


     _p_a_t_h = "_R_e_g_i_s_t_r_y_K_e_y_P_a_t_h", _k_e_y = "_c_h_a_r_a_c_t_e_r" identifies the folder
          in which the new key is to be created via a 'RegistryKeyPath'
          and the name of the new key as a simple string.
