-- Usage: {{#invoke:ProcessArgs|passThrough|<template name>}}
-- Calls the provided template with all the arguments available in the current context.
-- For instance, if the template {{A}} invokes this with a template 'B', and a page transcludes {{A}} and supplies arguments to it ({{A|arg1|arg2}}, calling this will return the equivalent of {{B|arg1|arg2}}
