<p>This trait is an argument to the <code>Spawn::execute</code> which is used to run a
future to completion. An executor will receive requests to run a future and
an executor is responsible for ensuring that happens in a timely fashion.</p>
<p>Note that this trait is likely to be deprecated and/or renamed to avoid
clashing with the <code>future::Executor</code> trait. If you've got a use case for
this or would like to comment on the name please let us know!</p>

<h2>Search Tricks</h2>
<p>
Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g.
<code>fn:</code>) to restrict the search to a given type.
</p>
<p>
Accepted types are: <code>fn</code>, <code>mod</code>,
<code>struct</code>, <code>enum</code>,
<code>trait</code>, <code>type</code>, <code>macro</code>,
and <code>const</code>.
</p>
<p>
Search functions by type signature (e.g.
<code>vec -> usize</code> or <code>* -> vec</code>)
