// Example usage:
//
// group := debouncer.NewGroup(DebouncerOpts[string]{

// // This is where you perform the expensive operation

// if err := group.Add("user-1"); err != nil {
// // Do something with the error.
// }
// // Adding the same key resets MinWait but not MaxWait
// if err := group.Add("user-1"); err != nil {
// // Do something with the error.
// }
//
// The event will be processed when either MinWait expires (after the most recent add)
// or MaxWait expires (after the first add), whichever comes first.
