+// Watcher is a mechanism for executing callbacks at specific positions in the audio stream.
+//
+// Watcher supports two types:
+//   - Asynchronous watchers: These are called from a separate goroutine after the Stream() function completes.
+//     They do not block the Stream() operation.
+//   - Synchronous watchers: These are executed precisely at the specified position in the stream. The source streamer
+//     is consumed up to the watch position before triggering the callback. Only after this point, the rest of
+//     the source stream will be consumed.
+//
+// While synchronous watchers offer better accuracy and performance for the overall application, they come with limitations:
+//   - Synchronous watchers run within Stream(), so they must not take excessive time to process. Lengthy operations
+//     could lead to playback glitches, especially when used in conjunction with the speaker. Slow synchronous watchers may
+//     adversely affect the performance of the Streamer pipeline.
+//   - When played through the speaker, the speaker remains in a locked state. Attempting to lock the speaker again
+//     (e.g., when performed in speaker.Add()) can result in a deadlock.
