This PR refactors the various subscribe methods provided by the event notifier. For every listener that was being subscribed, the event notifier would generate a random key, store the listener under that key, and return that key. To unsubscribe, the user had to pass that key to the corresponding unsubscribe method which would lookup the listener and then unsubscribe it from the underlying event emitter. Storing the listener under a key is not needed and is a bit redundant as the underlying event emitter already stores them.
This PR modified the event notifier such that it does not keep track of registered callbacks but instead returns an unsubscribe function from the subscribe methods. The unsubscribe function closes over the callback that needs to be unregistered from the underlying event emitter.
