Creates an Event Stream from a Signal Observable and tags it with the given guarantees.
The assumption here is that the contexts of the Signal Observable have already been attached.
The primitive can be used for Guarantees with non-obvious Contexts (other than e.g. counters)
the developer might come up with.
Attaches the given Guarantee to it if provided without changing the context.
Otherwise attaches the globally defined Guarantee,

@doc """
Filters out the Event Streams values that do not satisfy the given predicate.
The expected function should take one argument, the value of an Observable and return a Boolean:
true if the value should be produced, false if the value should be discarded.
If no Guarantee is provided, the merge does not alter the Event Stream Messages.
The consequences of using this operator in this way are left to the developer.
If however a Guarantee is provided, it is attached to the resulting Event Stream as its new Guarantee,
replacing any previous ones. This is reflected in the Message Contexts.
Thus, filtering in this way can be considered to be the creation of a new source Signal
with the given Guarantee in a stratified dependency graph.

Merges multiple Event Streams together
The resulting Event Stream carries the events of all composed Event Streams as they arrived.
If no Guarantee is provided, the merge does not alter the Event Stream Messages.
A necessary condition for this operation to be valid then is that the given Event Streams all carry the same Guarantees.
The consequences of using this operator in this way are left to the developer.
If however a Guarantee is provided, it is attached to the resulting Event Stream as its new Guarantee,
replacing any previous ones. This is reflected in the Message Contexts.

Merges multiple Event Streams together
The resulting Event Stream carries the events of all composed Event Streams in a round-robin fashion.
Should not be used for Event Streams with known discrepancies in event occurrence frequency,
since messages will accumulate and create a memory leak.

A necessary condition for this operation to be valid then is that the given Event Streams all carry the same Guarantees.
