// Creates an event log. You can write to this during testing and then assert
// on the result.
//
// The main use case is for asynchronous e2e tests. It provides a `waitFor`
// method that resolves when the log matches some expected asynchronous sequence
// of events. This is an alternative to setting up a timer loop. It helps catch
// subtle mistakes where the order of events is not expected, or the same
// event happens more than it should.
//
// Based on the Scheduler.log pattern used in the React repo.
