"""A formatter which formats phone numbers as they are entered.

An AsYouTypeFormatter can be created by invoking
AsYouTypeFormatter(region_code). After that digits can be added by invoking
input_digit() on the formatter instance, and the partially formatted phone
number will be returned each time a digit is added. clear() should be invoked
before a new number needs to be formatted.

See the unit tests for more details on how the formatter is to be used.
