collect

Accepts the given collector and emits values into it.

This method can be used along with SAM-conversion of FlowCollector:

myFlow.collect { value -> println("Collected $value") }

Method inheritance

To ensure the context preservation property, it is not recommended implementing this method directly. Instead, AbstractFlow can be used as the base type to properly ensure flow's properties.

All default flow implementations ensure context preservation and exception transparency properties on a best-effort basis and throw IllegalStateException if a violation was detected.
