    /// place while this generator exists. The generator itself is movable,
    /// since it just holds a reference to the pinned state.
    ///
    /// The function accepts a [`Co`] object, and returns a future. Every time
    /// the generator is resumed, the future is polled. Each time the future is
    /// polled, it should do one of two things:
    ///
    /// - Call `co.yield_()`, and then return `Poll::Pending`.
    /// - Drop the `Co`, and then return `Poll::Ready`.
    ///
    /// Typically this exchange will happen in the context of an `async fn`.
    ///
    /// # Safety
    ///
    /// The `Co` object must not outlive the returned `Gen`. By time the
    /// generator completes (i.e., by time the producer's Future returns
    /// `Poll::Ready`), the `Co` object should already have been dropped. If
    /// this invariant is not upheld, memory unsafety can result.
    ///
    /// Afaik, the Rust compiler [is not flexible enough][hrtb-thread] to let
    /// you express this invariant in the type system, but I would love to be
    /// proven wrong!
