<p>
This method performs property variable substitution on the specified
value. If the specified value contains the syntax
<tt>${&lt;prop-name&gt;}</tt>, where <tt>&lt;prop-name&gt;</tt> refers to
either a configuration property or a system property, then the
corresponding property value is substituted for the variable placeholder.
Multiple variable placeholders may exist in the specified value as well
as nested variable placeholders, which are substituted from inner most to
outer most. Configuration properties override system properties.
</p>

@param val
The string on which to perform property substitution.
@param currentKey
The key of the property being evaluated used to
detect cycles.
@param cycleMap
Map of variable references used to detect nested cycles.
@param configProps
Set of configuration properties.
@return The value of the specified string after system property
substitution.
@throws IllegalArgumentException
If there was a syntax error in the
property placeholder syntax or a recursive variable
reference.
