+ * Apply a series of operators to a value, returning the original value.

+ * Helpful for values/methods that don't support chaining.
+ *
+ * @example
+ * ```ts
+ * const inOneHour = () => tap(new Date, d => d.setMinutes(d.getMinutes() + 60))
+ * ```
+ *
+ * This is equivalent to:
+ *
+ * ```ts
+ * const inOneHour = () => {
+ *     const d = new Date
+ *     d.setMinutes(d.getMinutes() + 60)
+ *     return d
+ * }
+ * ```
+ *
+ * @param value
+ * @param ops
