=============

Hybrid events for plain javascript objects.

What is hybrid event?

---------------------

Hybrid event is a function that acts as:

* Binder if argument is a function.

* Trigger otherwise.

Event definition

----------------

To define new event you need to call `HybridEvent` with an event name. For example

```javaacript

var event = HybridEvent('itHappens');

```

This will define an event name `itHappens` without any additional logic.

Event parameters

----------------

One can speciefy additional options for event to implement custom setup/teardown and bubbling logic.

```javascript

var verySpecialEvent = HybridEvent('specialEvent', {

    setup: function(name){

        //custom setup logic called when the first callback was added

    },

    

    add: function(name) {

        //custom logic on every callback added

    },

    

    remove: function(name) {

        //custom logic on every callback removed

    },

    

    teardown: function(name) {

        //custom teardown logic called when all callbacks were removed

    },

    

    propagate: function() {

        //lookup parent for current event target.

    }

});

```
