 * @example <caption>Count the number of click events</caption>
 * const click$ = Rx.Observable.fromEvent(document, 'click');
 * const one$ = click$.mapTo(1);
 * const seed = 0;
 * const count$ = one$.mergeScan((acc, one) => Rx.Observable.of(acc + one), seed);
 * count$.subscribe(x => console.log(x));
 *
 * // Results:
 * 1
 * 2
 * 3
 * 4
 * // ...and so on for each click
 *
 * @param {function(acc: R, value: T): Observable<R>} accumulator
 * The accumulator function called on each source value.
 * @param seed The initial accumulation value.
 * @param {number} [concurrent=Number.POSITIVE_INFINITY] Maximum number of
 * input Observables being subscribed to concurrently.
 * @return {Observable<R>} An observable of the accumulated values.
