/**
 * Block records all output between [[begin()]] and [[end()]] calls and stores it in [[\yii\base\View::$blocks]].
 * for later use.
 *
 * [[\yii\base\View]] component contains two methods [[\yii\base\View::beginBlock()]] and [[\yii\base\View::endBlock()]].
 * The general idea is that you're defining block default in a view or layout:
 *
 * ```php
 * <?php $this->beginBlock('messages', true) ?>
 * Nothing.
 * <?php $this->endBlock() ?>
 * ```
 *
 * And then overriding default in sub-views:
 *
 * ```php
 * <?php $this->beginBlock('username') ?>
 * Umm... hello?
 * <?php $this->endBlock() ?>
 * ```
 *
 * Second parameter defines if block content should be outputted which is desired when rendering its content but isn't
 * desired when redefining it in subviews.
