/**
 * Creates and initializes a PowerPagesElement instance.
 * @see {@link CreationOptions}
 * @param  **target** - The selector, using `querySelector` syntax, for the desired DOM element. Or, the `HTMLElement` itself for which to create a PowerPagesElement.
 * @param **options** - Options for advanced retrieval of elements
 * @param **options.multiple** - Should this call return an array of instantiated references, or just a single? Defaults to false, returning a single instance
 * @param **options.root** - Optionally specify the element within to search for the element targeted by 'target'. Defaults to `document.body`
 * @param **options.timeoutMs** - Optionally specify the amount of time that should be waited to find the targeted element before throwing error - useful for async DOM loading. Relies on MutationObserver.  ***WARNING***: Implementing multiple references with timeout can result in infinite loading.
 * @returns  A promise that resolves to a Proxy of the initialized PowerPagesElement instance.
