Triggers a named action on the `ActionHandler`. Any parameters
supplied after the `actionName` string will be passed as arguments
to the action target function.

If the `ActionHandler` has its `target` property set, actions may
bubble to the `target`. Bubbling happens when an `actionName` can
not be found in the `ActionHandler`'s `actions` hash or if the
action target function returns `true`.

Example

```js
App.WelcomeRoute = Ember.Route.extend({
actions: {
playTheme: function() {
this.send('playMusic', 'theme.mp3');
},
playMusic: function(track) {
...
}
}
});
```

@method send
@param {String} actionName The action to trigger
@param {*} context a context to send with the action
