/**
* Returns an Observable that emits all items emitted by the source Observable that are distinct by comparison from the previous item,
* using a property accessed by using the key provided to check if the two items are distinct.
*
* If a comparator function is provided, then it will be called for each item to test for whether or not that value should be emitted.
*
* If a comparator function is not provided, an equality check is used by default.
*
* ## Examples
* An example comparing the name of persons
* ```typescript
* import { of } from 'rxjs';
* import { distinctUntilKeyChanged } from 'rxjs/operators';
*
* interface Person {
* age: number,
* name: string
* }
*
* of<Person>(
* { age: 4, name: 'Foo'},
* { age: 7, name: 'Bar'},
* { age: 5, name: 'Foo'},
* { age: 6, name: 'Foo'},
* ).pipe(
* distinctUntilKeyChanged('name'),
* )
* .subscribe(x => console.log(x));
*
* // displays:
* // { age: 4, name: 'Foo' }
* // { age: 7, name: 'Bar' }
* // { age: 5, name: 'Foo' }
* ```
*
* An example comparing the first letters of the name
* ```typescript
* import { of } from 'rxjs';
* import { distinctUntilKeyChanged } from 'rxjs/operators';
*
* interface Person {
* age: number,
* name: string
* }
*
* of<Person>(
* { age: 4, name: 'Foo1'},
* { age: 7, name: 'Bar'},
* { age: 5, name: 'Foo2'},
* { age: 6, name: 'Foo3'},
* ).pipe(
* distinctUntilKeyChanged('name', (x: string, y: string) => x.substring(0, 3) === y.substring(0, 3)),
* )
* .subscribe(x => console.log(x));
*
* // displays:
* // { age: 4, name: 'Foo1' }
* // { age: 7, name: 'Bar' }
* // { age: 5, name: 'Foo2' }
* ```
