These are "match lists", the syntax allows a list of literal values, or
a file with one value per line, or a table with keys and ignored values.
Tables types that are "indexed files" (hash, btree, cdb, lmdb, ...)
don't use the source file directly, instead a "database" file is
created from the source file in order to support more efficient
lookup than linear search.
Table syntax always specifies the table type "type:table", and
postmap is needed for the "types" that construct "indexed file"
representations of the data.

This parameter requires lookup tables, and does not support a list of
literal values. The values associated with the lookup keys are
meaningful and not ignored.
