vetoable
inline fun <T> vetoable(
initialValue: T,
crossinline onChange: (property: KProperty<*>, oldValue: T, newValue: T) -> Boolean
): ReadWriteProperty<Any?, T>Returns a property delegate for a read/write property that calls a specified callback function when changed, allowing the callback to veto the modification.

}Parameters
initialValue - the initial value of the property.
onChange - the callback which is called before a change to the property value is attempted.
The value of the property hasn't been changed yet, when this callback is invoked.
If the callback returns true the value of the property is being set to the new value,
and if the callback returns false the new value is discarded and the property remains its old value.
