/// ([`ConnectedWorkerRegistry::set_dispatch_ineligible`]) — are both

/// registry, misses, and only then constructs its wait has already lost any
/// arrival that landed during the read: the broadcast fired into an empty waiter
/// list. That caller then sleeps on a pool it holds positive evidence is served,
/// until some unrelated later registration happens to wake it — and on the gRPC
/// transport, where no liveness probe runs and no verdict is ever published, an
/// unrelated registration is the ONLY thing that ever could.
///
/// So the subscription is a value the caller takes **before** it looks, and
/// awaits **after** it has missed. Everything that fires in between is retained.
///
/// # Why it is retained — tokio 1.52.3 at the bytes
///
/// Line numbers are in `tokio-1.52.3/src/sync/notify.rs`, the version
/// `Cargo.lock` pins.
///
/// - `Notify::notified_owned` (`:613`) snapshots the process-wide
///   `notify_waiters` call counter into the future **at construction**
///   (`:619`, `notify_waiters_calls: get_num_notify_waiters_calls(state)`).
/// - `notify_waiters` (`:743`) increments that counter unconditionally —
///   `inner_notify_waiters` bumps it at `:755` when nobody is parked and at
///   `:761` when someone is. A broadcast into an empty list is therefore not
///   lost; it moves a number.
/// - `poll_notified`'s `State::Init` arm compares the snapshot against the live
///   counter at `:1124`, and again under the waiter lock at `:1156`; a
///   difference sends the future straight to `State::Done` → `Poll::Ready`.
///
/// That comparison is the retention property, and it belongs to **construction**.
/// `OwnedNotified::enable` (`:1059`) is called here too: it runs that same `Init`
/// arm eagerly and, on the not-yet-notified path, pushes the waiter into the list
/// at `:1219` — so the waiter is registered at a defined point rather than at
/// first poll, and a `notify_one` permit would be retained as well if one were
/// ever added to this `Notify`. There is none today; this type must not rest its
/// correctness on that staying true.
///
/// # What it costs
///
/// `OwnedNotified` rather than the borrowed `Notified<'_>` because the value
/// crosses a `&mut dyn FnMut(..)` boundary (the wait path's `park` contract) and
/// sits in a `tokio::select!` arm (the bridge's park); the borrowed form forces
/// a higher-ranked bound through the first and pinning ceremony at the second.
///
/// `Pin<Box<_>>` because `enable` needs `Pin<&mut Self>` at construction, and
/// because it makes this type `Unpin` so no call site owes pinning ceremony. The
/// price is one heap allocation per selection-loop iteration, on a path that is
/// about to park. The alternative — hand back a bare `OwnedNotified` and ask
/// every call site to remember `pin!` and `enable()` — puts the obligation back
/// on the call sites, and a call site that forgot its obligation is precisely
/// the defect this type exists to end.
