/**
 * This file defines functions to add the ability for redux reducers
 * to broadcast specific state changes to a non-React UI. You should
 * *never* use this for new code that uses React, as it violates the
 * core principals of a functional UI. This should only be used when
 * migrating old code to redux, because it allows you to use redux
 * with event-listening UI elements. The typical way to set all of
 * this up is this:
 *
 *  const emitter = makeEmitter();
 *  let store = createStore(combineEmittingReducers(
 *    reducers,
 *    emitter.emit
 *  ));
 *  store = enhanceStoreWithEmitter(store, emitter);
 *
 * Now reducers will receive a 3rd argument, `emit`, for emitting
 * events, and the store has an `on` function for listening to them.
 * For example, a reducer can now do this:
 *
 * function update(state = initialState, action, emitChange) {
 *   if (action.type === constants.ADD_BREAKPOINT) {
 *     const id = action.breakpoint.id;
 *     emitChange('add-breakpoint', action.breakpoint);
 *     return state.merge({ [id]: action.breakpoint });
 *   }
 *   return state;
 * }
 *
 * `emitChange` is *not* synchronous, the state changes will be
 * broadcasted *after* all reducers are run and the state has been
 * updated.
 *
 * Now, a non-React widget can do this:
 *
 * store.on('add-breakpoint', breakpoint => { ... });
 */

/**
 * Make an emitter that is meant to be used in redux reducers. This
 * does not run listeners immediately when an event is emitted; it
 * waits until all reducers have run and the store has updated the
 * state, and then fires any enqueued events. Events *are* fired
 * synchronously, but just later in the process.
 *
 * This is important because you never want the UI to be updating in
 * the middle of a reducing process. Reducers will fire these events
 * in the middle of generating new state, but the new state is *not*
 * available from the store yet. So if the UI executes in the middle
 * of the reducing process and calls `getState()` to get something
 * from the state, it will get stale state.
 *
 * We want the reducing and the UI updating phases to execute
 * atomically and independent from each other.
 *
 * @param {Function} stillAliveFunc
 *        A function that indicates the app is still active. If this
 *        returns false, changes will stop being broadcasted.
