/**
 * Projects each source value to an Observable which is merged in the output
 * Observable, in a serialized fashion waiting for each one to complete before
 * merging the next.
 *
 * <span class="informal">Maps each value to an Observable, then flattens all of
 * these inner Observables using {@link concatAll}.</span>
 *
 * ![](concatMap.png)
 *
 * Returns an Observable that emits items based on applying a function that you
 * supply to each item emitted by the source Observable, where that function
 * returns an (so-called "inner") Observable. Each new inner Observable is
 * concatenated with the previous inner Observable.
 *
 * __Warning:__ if source values arrive endlessly and faster than their
 * corresponding inner Observables can complete, it will result in memory issues
 * as inner Observables amass in an unbounded buffer waiting for their turn to
 * be subscribed to.
 *
 * Note: `concatMap` is equivalent to `mergeMap` with concurrency parameter set
 * to `1`.
 *
 * ## Example
 * For each click event, tick every second from 0 to 3, with no concurrency
 *
 * ```ts
 * import { fromEvent, interval } from 'rxjs';
 * import { concatMap, take } from 'rxjs/operators';
 *
 * const clicks = fromEvent(document, 'click');
 * const result = clicks.pipe(
 *   concatMap(ev => interval(1000).pipe(take(4)))
 * );
 * result.subscribe(x => console.log(x));
 *
 * // Results in the following:
 * // (results are not concurrent)
 * // For every click on the "document" it will emit values 0 to 3 spaced
 * // on a 1000ms interval
 * // one click = 1000ms-> 0 -1000ms-> 1 -1000ms-> 2 -1000ms-> 3
 * ```

 * @return {Observable} An Observable that emits the result of applying the
 * projection function (and the optional deprecated `resultSelector`) to each item emitted
 * by the source Observable and taking values from each projected inner
 * Observable sequentially.
