Class UntypedActorWithStash

Actor base class that should be extended to create an actor with a stash.

The stash enables an actor to temporarily stash away messages that can not or should not be handled using the actor's current behavior.

Note that the subclasses of `UntypedActorWithStash` by default request a Deque based mailbox since this class implements the IRequiresMessageQueue<T> marker interface.

You can override the default mailbox provided when `IDequeBasedMessageQueueSemantics` are requested via config: 
akka.actor.mailbox.requirements {
    "Akka.Dispatch.IDequeBasedMessageQueueSemantics" = your-custom-mailbox
}
Alternatively, you can add your own requirement marker to the actor and configure a mailbox type to be used for your marker.

For a `Stash` based actor that enforces unbounded deques see UntypedActorWithUnboundedStash. There is also an unrestricted version UntypedActorWithUnrestrictedStash that does not enforce the mailbox type.
