71    Process the error_message in the manner described below.
72
73    This function is designed solely for use by other functions in this file.
74
75    NOTE: A blank error_message means that there is no error.
76
77    For the following explanations, assume the caller of this function is a function with the following
78    definition:
79    valid_value(var_value, valid_values=[], invalid_values=[], var_name=None):
80
81    If the user of valid_value() is assigning the valid_value() return value to a variable,
82    process_error_message() will simply return the error_message.  This mode of usage is illustrated by the
83    following example:
84
85    error_message = valid_value(var1)
86
87    This mode is useful for callers who wish to validate a variable and then decide for themselves what to do
88    with the error_message (e.g. raise(error_message), BuiltIn().fail(error_message), etc.).
89
90    If the user of valid_value() is NOT assigning the valid_value() return value to a variable,
91    process_error_message() will behave as follows.
92
93    First, if error_message is non-blank, it will be printed to stderr via a call to
94    gp.print_error_report(error_message).
95
96    If exit_on_error is set:
97    - If the error_message is blank, simply return.
98    - If the error_message is non-blank, exit the program with a return code of 1.
99
100    If exit_on_error is NOT set:
101    - If the error_message is blank, return True.
102    - If the error_message is non-blank, return False.
