// Package mrun provides the ability to register callback hooks on Components,
// as well as some convenience functions which allow using a context as a
// wait-group.
//
// Hooks
//
// Hooks are registered onto Components and later called in bulk. mrun will take
// into account the order Hooks are registered, including Hooks within a
// Component's children (see mcmp package), and execute them in the same order
// they were registered. For example:
//
//	newHook := func(i int) mrun.Hook {
//		return func(context.Context) error {
//			fmt.Println(i)
//			return nil
//		}
//	}
//
//	cmp := new(mcmp.Component)
//	mrun.InitHook(cmp, newHook(0))
//
//	cmpChild := cmp.Child("child")
//	mrun.InitHook(cmpChild, newHook(1))
//
//	mrun.InitHook(cmp, newHook(2))
//	mrun.Init(context.Background(), cmp) // prints "0", "1", then "2"
//
