Update InitController to support dispatching detail

- Update JSDoc throughout controller for better internal documentation
- Ensure we 'clean up' the other controller attributes when the init has completed
- Allow for the ready event to have the preventDefault called and stop other events from dispatching
- Add unit tests to support the above changes
