The `clone()` method accepts the same set arguments as |ASN.1| class takes on instantiation except that all arguments of the `clone()` method are optional. Whatever arguments are supplied, they are used to create a copy of `self` taking precedence over the ones used to instantiate `self`. Note ---- Due to the immutable nature of the |ASN.1| object, if no arguments are supplied, no new |ASN.1| object will be created and `self` will be returned instead. """
