        '''Get the topic object for topic of given name, creating it 
        (and any of its missing parent topics) as necessary. This should
        be useful mostly to TopicManager itself.

        Topic creation: The topic definition will be obtained
        from the first registered TopicDefnProvider (see addTopicDefnProvider()
        method) that can provide it. If none is found, then protoListener,
        if given, will be used to extract the specification for the topic
        message arguments.
        
        So the topic object returned will be either
        1. an existing one
        2. a new one whose specification was obtained from a TopicDefnProvider
        3. a new one whose specification was inferred from protoListener
        4. a new one without any specification

        For the first three cases, the Topic is ready for sending messages.
        In the last case, topic.isSendable() is false and the specification
        will be set by the first call to subscribe() (unless you call
        topicObj.setMsgArgSpec() first to set it yourself).

        Note that if the topic gets created, missing intervening parents
        will be created with an empty specification. For instance, if topic
        A exists, and name="A.B.C", then A.B will also be created. It will
        only be complete (sendable) if a topic definition provider had
        its definition.

        Note also that if protoListener given, and topic already defined,
        the method does not check whether protoListener adheres to the
        specification.'''
