+* `signal` {AbortSignal}
+* `listener` {Function|EventListener}
+* `options` {Object}
+  * `passive` {boolean} When `true`, serves as a hint that the listener will
+    not call the `Event` object's `preventDefault()` method.
+    **Default:** `false`.
+  * `signal` {AbortSignal} The listener will be removed when the given
+    AbortSignal object's `abort()` method is called.
+* Returns: {Disposable} that removes the `abort` listener.
+
+Listens once to the `abort` event on the provided `signal`.
+The listeners will be triggered even if the `abort` event's propagation has
+been stopped.
