Description

Certain use-cases require function invocations on certain events related to a container's lifecycle or individual function invocation lifecycle.

Here are some possible examples:

- `on('bad_request', (req, res) => {})`
- Handle bad HTTP request (400)
- `on('startup', (req, res) => {})`
- Invoke once after the container is started and before the first HTTP request.
- `on('shutdown', (req, res) => {})`
- Invoke once before the container is terminated.
- `on('before_function', (req, res) => {})`
- Invoke before every function invocation
- `on('after_function', (req, res) => {})`
- Invoke after every function invocation

An example API could be the following:

```js
functionsframework.on('bad_request', (e, req, res, next) {
if (e.message === "Bad request") {
res.status(400).json({error: {msg: e.message, stack: e.stack}});
}
});
```
