#' Use Progressr in Shiny Apps: Plug-in Backward-Compatible Replacement for shiny::withProgress()
#'
#' A plug-in, backward-compatible replacement for [shiny::withProgress()].
#'
#' @inheritParams handler_shiny
#'
#' @param expr,\ldots,env,quoted Arguments passed to [shiny::withProgress()] as is.
#'
#' @param message,detail (character string) The message and the detail message to be passed to [shiny::withProgress()].
#' 
#' @param handlers Zero or more progression handlers used to report on progress.
#'
#' @return The value of [shiny::withProgress].
#'
#' @example incl/withProgressShiny.R
#'
#' @section Requirements:
#' This function requires the \pkg{shiny} package and will use the
#' [handler_shiny()] **progressr** handler internally to report on updates.
