// Package mctx extends the builtin context package to organize Contexts into a
// heirarchy. Each node in the hierarchy is given a name and is aware of all of
// its ancestors.
//
// This package also provides extra functionality which allows contexts
// to be more useful when used in the heirarchy.
//
// All functions and methods in this package are thread-safe unless otherwise
// noted.
