/**
 * Utility to construct GRXWriter instances from values that are immediately available when
 * required.
 *
 * Thread-safety:
 *
 * An object of this class shouldn't be messaged concurrently by more than one thread. It will start
 * messaging the writeable before |startWithWriteable:| returns, in the same thread. That is the
 * only place where the writer can be paused or stopped prematurely.
 *
 * If a paused writer of this class is resumed, it will start messaging the writeable, in the same
 * thread, before |setState:| returns. Because the object can't be legally accessed concurrently,
 * that's the only place where it can be paused again (or stopped).
