+/**
+ * Makes the res.status() function chainable by returning the res object as in Express.js.
+ * The original Restify status function is still made available at res.statusRestify().
+ * This plugin is helpful in cases where Restify is interfacing with Express.js and/or other
+ * similar middleware code such as:
+ * 
+ * middleware(req, res, next) {
+ *     res.status(200).send('ok');
+ * }
+ * 
+ * and where interfacing code changes are not possible.
+ * 
+ * @public
+ * @function chainableStatus
+ * @returns  {Function} Handler
+ * @example
+ * let server = restify.createServer();
+ * server.use(restify.plugins.chainableStatus());
