This nightly-only crate provides a proof-of-concept proc macro attribute that
allows async functions within traits, without the possible runtime overhead of
wrapping everything in a `Box` and erasing the types. This is made possible
thanks to the unstable `generic_associated_types` and `type_alias_impl_trait`
nightly features.
