/**
* A middleware which acts like a service, because it is stateful
* and "long-running" in the background. It provides the ability
* for actions to install a function to be run once when a specific
* condition is met by an action coming through the system. Think of
* it as a thunk that blocks until the condition is met. Example:
*
* ```js
* const services = { WAIT_UNTIL: require('wait-service').NAME };
*
* { type: services.WAIT_UNTIL,
* predicate: action => action.type === constants.ADD_ITEM,
* run: (dispatch, getState, action) => {
* // Do anything here. You only need to accept the arguments
* // if you need them. `action` is the action that satisfied
* // the predicate.
* }
* }
* ```
