Alarm identifier
Alarm identifiers are the unique identifiers of each alarm that can be
set or cleared.
While SASL alarm identifiers can be anything, Alarmist imposes the restriction
that they all be atoms. It is highly recommended to use module names to
avoid naming collisions. Non-atom alarms are currently ignored by Alarmist.
"""
@type alarm_id() :: atom()
@typedoc """
Alarm description
This is optional supplemental information about the alarm. It could contain
more information about why it was set. Don't use it to differentiate between
alarms. Use the alarm ID for that.
"""
@type alarm_description() :: any()
@typedoc """
Alarm information
Calls to `:alarm_handler.set_alarm/1` pass an alarm identifier and
description as a 2-tuple. Alarmist stores the description of the most recent
call.
`:alarm_handler.set_alarm/1` doesn't enforce the use of 2-tuples. Alarmist
normalizes non-2-tuple alarms so that they have empty descriptions.
"""
@type alarm() :: {alarm_id(), alarm_description()}
@typedoc """
Alarm state
Alarms are in the `:set` state after a call to `:alarm_handler.set_alarm/1`
and in the `:clear` state after a call to `:alarm_handler.clear_alarm/1`.
Redundant calls to `:alarm_handler.set_alarm/1` update the alarm description
and redundant calls to `:alarm_handler.clear_alarm/1` are ignored.

Subscribe to alarm status events
Events will be delivered to the calling process as:
```elixir
%Alarmist.Event{
id: TheAlarmId,
state: :set,
description: nil,
timestamp: -576460712978320952,
previous_state: :unknown,

Return a list of all active alarms
This returns `{id, description}` tuples. Note that `Alarmist` normalizes
alarms that were not set as 2-tuples so this may not match calls to
`:alarm_handler.set_alarm/1` exactly.
