/**
 * {@link LiveData} subclass which may observe other {@code LiveData} objects and react on
 * {@code OnChanged} events from them.
 * 

* This class correctly propagates its active/inactive states down to source {@code LiveData} * objects. *

* Consider the following scenario: we have 2 instances of {@code LiveData}, let's name them * {@code liveData1} and {@code liveData2}, and we want to merge their emissions in one object: * {@code liveDataMerger}. Then, {@code liveData1} and {@code liveData2} will become sources for * the {@code MediatorLiveData liveDataMerger} and every time {@code onChanged} callback * is called for either of them, we set a new value in {@code liveDataMerger}. * *

 * LiveData<Integer> liveData1 = ...;
 * LiveData<Integer> liveData2 = ...;
 *
 * MediatorLiveData<Integer> liveDataMerger = new MediatorLiveData<>();
 * liveDataMerger.addSource(liveData1, value -> liveDataMerger.setValue(value));
 * liveDataMerger.addSource(liveData2, value ->liveDataMerger.setValue(value));
 * 
*

* Let's consider that we only want 10 values emitted by {@code liveData1}, to be * merged in the {@code liveDataMerger}. Then, after 10 values, we can stop listening to {@code * liveData1} and remove it as a source. *

 * liveDataMerger.addSource(liveData1, new Observer<Integer>() {
 *      private int count = 1;
 *
 *      {@literal @}Override public void onChanged(@Nullable Integer s) {
 *          count++;
 *          liveDataMerger.setValue(s);
 *          if (count > 10) {
 *              liveDataMerger.removeSource(liveData1);
 *          }
 *      }
 * });
