/**
 * A middleware for Botkit developers using the BotBuilder SlackAdapter class.
 * This middleware causes Botkit to emit message events by their `type` or `subtype` field rather than their default BotBuilder Activity type (limited to message or event).
 * This keeps the new Botkit behavior consistent withprevious versions, and provides helpful filtering on the many event types that Slack sends.
 * To use this, bind it to the adapter before creating the Botkit controller:
 * ```javascript
 * const adapter = new SlackAdapter(options);
 * adapter.use(new SlackEventMiddleware());
 * const controller = new Botkit({
 *      adapter: adapter,
 *      // ...
 * });
 *
 * // can bind directly to channel_join (which starts as a message with type message and subtype channel_join)
 * controller.on('channel_join', async(bot, message) => {
 *  // send a welcome
 * });
 * ```
