15/// An async-friendly version of [App] with a static lifetime so it can be held across `await` points in async code.
16/// You're provided with an instance when calling [App::spawn], and you can also create one with [App::to_async].
17///
18/// Internally, this holds a weak reference to an `App`. Methods will panic if the app has been dropped,
19/// but this should not happen in practice when using foreground tasks spawned via `cx.spawn()`,
20/// as the executor checks if the app is alive before running each task.
