/**
 * The @c use_awaitable_t class, with its value @c use_awaitable, is used to
 * represent the currently executing coroutine. This completion token may be
 * passed as a handler to an asynchronous operation. For example:
 *
 * @code awaitable<void> my_coroutine()
 * {
 *   std::size_t n = co_await my_socket.async_read_some(buffer, use_awaitable);
 *   ...
 * } @endcode
 *
 * When used with co_await, the initiating function (@c async_read_some in the
 * above example) suspends the current coroutine. The coroutine is resumed when
 * the asynchronous operation completes, and the result of the operation is
 * returned.
