// Notify registers a desire to be updated about changes to a cache result.
//
// It is a helper that abstracts code from perfroming their own "blocking" query
// logic against a cache key to watch for changes and to maintain the key in
// cache actively. It will continue to perform blocking Get requests until the
// context is canceled.
//
// The passed context must be cancelled or timeout in order to free resources
// and stop maintaining the value in cache. Typically request-scoped resources
// do this but if a long-lived context like context.Background is used, then the
// caller must arrange for it to be cancelled when the watch is no longer
// needed.
//
// The passed chan may be buffered or unbuffered, if the caller doesn't consume
// fast enough it will block the notification loop. When the chan is later
// drained, watching resumes correctly. If the pause is longer than the
// cachetype's TTL, the result might be removed from the local cache. Even in
// this case though when the chan is drained again, the new Get will re-fetch
// the entry from servers and resume notification behaviour transparently.
//
// The chan is passed in to allow multiple cached results to be watched by a
// single consumer without juggling extra goroutines per watch. The
// correlationID is opaque and will be returned in all UpdateEvents generated by
// result of watching the specified request so the caller can set this to any
// value that allows them to dissambiguate between events in the returned chan
// when sharing a chan between multiple cache entries. If the chan is closed,
// the notify loop will terminate.
