Research direction

The request is to export ticker() from src/ticks for projects building timezone-aware scales. Start by reading that module and the package's existing export conventions. Done means consumers can import ticker() from the requested internal module; the issue gives no test file or verification command.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Hey guys,
Thanks for maintaining this.

Is there any chance of exporting ticker() from src/ticks? There are a few projects around that try to use this machinery to build a timezone-aware scale (e.g. https://github.com/yamass/d3-luxon/blob/main/src/scale/scaleZoned.js) . Without ticker being exported, these have to reimplement it from scratch.
I'm aware that you probably don't want it part of your stable API, but even exporting it from the internal module in src would be appreciated so users can swim with sharks if they accept the risk.

Thanks again!
