+  This means that if the process isn’t started yet, you can pass a function
+  that resolves to the pid later. When the mock is invoked,
+  Mox will call this function. If it returns a pid, the call is allowed.
+  If it doesn’t, the expectation fails.
+
+  This is especially useful when testing a `GenServer` that calls the mock during `init/1`,
+  since the server’s pid is not available until after `start_link/1`.
