Returns an Observable that emits the same values as the source ObservableSource with the exception of an
{@code onComplete}. An {@code onComplete} notification from the source will result in the emission of
a {@code void} item to the ObservableSource provided as an argument to the {@code notificationHandler}
function. If that ObservableSource calls {@code onComplete} or {@code onError} then {@code repeatWhen} will
call {@code onComplete} or {@code onError} on the child subscription. Otherwise, this ObservableSource will
resubscribe to the source ObservableSource.

@param handler
receives an ObservableSource of notifications with which a user can complete or error, aborting the repeat.
