/**
 * Class ErrorControlChain
 *
 * Runs a set of steps, optionally suppressing uncaught errors or exceptions which would otherwise be fatal that
 * occur in each step. If an error does occur, subsequent steps are normally skipped, but can optionally be run anyway.
 *
 * Usage:
 *
 * $chain = new ErrorControlChain();
 * $chain->then($callback1)->then($callback2)->thenIfErrored($callback3)->execute();
 *
 * WARNING: This class is experimental and designed specifically for use pre-startup in main.php
 * It will likely be heavily refactored before the release of 3.2
