/**
The tap module provides a gesture events, "tap", which normalizes user interactions
across touch and mouse or pointer based input devices.  This can be used by application developers
to build input device agnostic components which behave the same in response to either touch or mouse based
interaction.

'tap' is like a touchscreen 'click', only it requires much less finger-down time since it listens to touch events,
but reverts to mouse events if touch is not supported.

@example

    YUI().use('event-tap', function (Y) {
        Y.one('#my-button').on('tap', function (e) {
            Y.log('Button was tapped on');
        });
    });

/**
Sets up a "tap" event, that is fired on touch devices in response to a tap event (finger down, finder up).
This event can be used instead of listening for click events which have a 500ms delay on most touch devices.
This event can also be listened for using node.delegate().

@event tap
@param type {string} "tap"
@param fn {function} The method the event invokes. It receives the event facade of the underlying DOM event.
@for Event
@return {EventHandle} the detach handle
