/// A pinned projection of a struct field.
///
/// To make using this macro safe, two things need to be ensured:
/// - If the struct implements [`Drop`], the [`drop`] method is not allowed to
///   move the value of the field.
/// - If the struct wants to implement [`Unpin`], it has to do so conditionally:
///   The struct can only implement [`Unpin`] if the field's type is [`Unpin`].
