    NB: This is a straight copy of the get_in implementation found in
        the toolz library (https://github.com/pytoolz/toolz/). It works
        with persistent data structures as well as the corresponding
        datastructures from the stdlib.

    Returns coll[i0][i1]...[iX] where [i0, i1, ..., iX]==keys.

    If coll[i0][i1]...[iX] cannot be found, returns ``default``, unless
    ``no_default`` is specified, then it raises KeyError or IndexError.

    ``get_in`` is a generalization of ``operator.getitem`` for nested data
    structures such as dictionaries and lists.
