    Description

      We have nice macros for defining a server parameter, like MONGO_EXPORT_SERVER_PARAMETER. But if you want to validate the input in any way, you can't use the macros and have to define the ServerParameter explicitly, like we do here. It would be nice if we could just pass in a lambda to the macro that returned a Status indicating whether the value provided was valid, that could be used both for startup and runtime changes.
