/*
GomegaMatchers that also match the OracleMatcher interface can convey information about
whether or not their result will change upon future attempts.
This allows `Eventually` and `Consistently` to short circuit if success becomes impossible.
For example, a process' exit code can never change. So, gexec's Exit matcher returns `true`
for `MatchMayChangeInTheFuture` until the process exits, at which point it returns `false` forevermore.
