An adaption of Senders/Receivers for async networking and I/O

This repository is still very experimental and in development. It's goal is to create abstractions for file and networking i/o using stdexec as a model for asynchronous operations.

The basic principles are:

• We use an async_resource concept to asynchronously create and asynchronously release a resource
  • such a resource is usable via some copyable, non-owning token such as a file_handle or socket_handle
  • examples are files, sockets, schedulers, memory ...
• We use sequence-senders for operations that could potentially complete multiple times
  • completion are either sequential or in parallel
  • examples are read and write operations, resolving hostnames or accepting new connections
