Does `{placeholder}` substitution on a string.  The object passed as the
second parameter provides values to replace the `{placeholder}`s.
{placeholder} token names must match property names of the object.  For
example

`var greeting = Y.substitute("Hello, {who}!", { who: "World" });`

`{placeholder}` tokens that are undefined on the object map will be left in
tact (leaving unsightly "{placeholder}"s in the output string).  If your
replacement strings *should* include curly braces, use `{LBRACE}` and
`{RBRACE}` in your object map string value.

If a function is passed as a third argument, it will be called for each
{placeholder} found.  The {placeholder} name is passed as the first value
and the value from the object map is passed as the second.  If the
{placeholder} contains a space, the first token will be used to identify
the object map property and the remainder will be passed as a third
argument to the function.  See below for an example.

If the value in the object map for a given {placeholder} is an object and
the `dump` module is loaded, the replacement value will be the string
result of calling `Y.dump(...)` with the object as input.  Include a
numeric second token in the {placeholder} to configure the depth of the call
to `Y.dump(...)`, e.g. "{someObject 2}".  See the
<a href="../classes/YUI.html#method_dump">`dump`</a> method for details.

    @method substitute
    @deprecated
    @param {string} s The string that will be modified.
    @param {object} o An object containing the replacement values.
    @param {function} f An optional function that can be used to
                        process each match.  It receives the key,
                        value, and any extra metadata included with
                        the key inside of the braces.
    @param {boolean} recurse if true, the replacement will be recursive,
                        letting you have replacement tokens in replacement text.
                        The default is false.
    @return {string} the substituted string.

    @example

        function getAttrVal(key, value, name) {
            // Return a string describing the named attribute and its value if
            // the first token is @. Otherwise, return the value from the
            // replacement object.
            if (key === "@") {
                value += name + " Value: " + myObject.get(name);
            }
            return value;
        }

        // Assuming myObject.set('foo', 'flowers'),
        // => "Attr: foo Value: flowers"
        var attrVal = Y.substitute("{@ foo}", { "@": "Attr: " }, getAttrVal);
