 *
 * @param {Function|Subject} Factory function to create an intermediate subject through
 * which the source sequence's elements will be multicast to the selector function
 * or Subject to push source elements into.
 * @param {Function} Optional selector function that can use the multicasted source stream
 * as many times as needed, without causing multiple subscriptions to the source stream.
 * Subscribers to the given source will receive all notifications of the source from the
 * time of the subscription forward.
 * @return {Observable} an Observable that emits the results of invoking the selector
 * on the items emitted by a `ConnectableObservable` that shares a single subscription to
 * the underlying stream.
