foundation module of squirrel framework which provided event driven infrastructure and a finite state machine implementation.

/**
* A linked state specifies the insertion of the specification of a submachine state machine.
* The state machine that contains the linked state is called the containing state machine.
* The same state machine may be a submachine more than once in the context of a single containing
* state machine.
*
* A linked state is semantically equivalent to a composite state. The regions of the submachine
* state machine are the regions of the composite state. The entry, exit, and behavior actions and
* internal transitions are defined as part of the state. Submachine state is a decomposition
* mechanism that allows factoring of common behaviors and their reuse.
