/**
 * Use the hook directly inside another React Hook or component. Best way to initialize it
 * is to either use a factory that returns a `new Worker()`, or using an string path (but bundlers
 * like Parcel won't be able to 'inline' the worker for you).
 *
 * The hook does not assumes knowledge of your worker (if it's a class, object, array, etc),
 * so you must keep the internal state and initialize any classes by yourself
 *
 * @example
 *   const MyApp = () => {
 *     const [state, setState] = useState('initialState')
 *     const { proxy } = useComlink(() => new Worker('./some.worker.js')) // initialize worker once
 *
 *     useEffect(() => {
 *       (async () => {
 *         setState(await proxy.method('some', 'arguments'))
 *       })()
 *       // or plain old
 *       proxy.method().then(setState)
 *     }, [proxy, setState])
 *
 *     return (<div>{state}</div>)

/**
 * Creates one instance of a worker that can be instantiated inside components and share a global state.
 * It always loads the worker before mounting any components, so most likely the worker will be
 * ready to use when called inside a component.
 *
 * NOTE: This creates ONE instance of the worker, with a global state, and it should be
 * used very carefully (and sparsingly). The global state won't show the same value on other
 * mounted components unless you query it. One of the problems with using this is that sometimes
 * the browser might FREE the worker during a GC
 *
 * @see https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/comlink/issues/63
 *
 * @example
 *  const useMyMethods = createComlinkSingleton(new Worker('./worker.js')) // outside the component, it's a factory
 *
 *  const MyComponent = () => {
 *    const myMethods = useMyMethods() // returns { proxy, worker }
 *
 *    useEffect(() => {
 *      (async function(){
 *        await myMethods.proxy.someMethod()
 *      })()
 *
 *      return () => myMethods.worker.terminate() // bad things may happen!
 *    }, [myMethods]) // myMethods is a memoed object, so it's considered stable
