/// Users can opt into allowing non-Send futures by using the `wasm-unstable-single-threaded`
/// feature.  This creates a `UniffiCompatibleFuture` impl for non-Send futures.
///
/// # Safety:
///
/// WASM32 is a single threaded environment. However, in a browser there do
/// exist [`WebWorker`][webworker]s which do not share memory or event-loop
/// with the main browser context.
///
/// Communication between contexts is only possible by message passing,
/// using a small number of ['transferable' object types][transferable].
///
/// The most common source of asynchrony in Rust compiled to WASM is
/// [wasm-bindgen's `JsFuture`][jsfuture]. It is not `Send` because:
///
/// 1. `T` and `E` are both `JsValue`
/// 2. `JsValue` may contain `JsFunction`s, either as a function themselves or
///    an object containing functions.
/// 3. Functions cannot be [serialized and sent][transferable] to `WebWorker`s.
///
/// Implementors of binding generators should be able to enumerate the
/// combinations of Rust or JS communicating across different contexts (here
/// using: <->), and in the same context (+) to account for why it is safe
/// for UniFFI to support `Future`s that are not `Send`:
///
/// 1. JS + Rust in the same contexts: polling and waking happens in the same
///    thread, no `Send` is needed.
/// 2. Rust <-> Rust in different contexts: Futures cannot be sent between JS
///    contexts within the same Rust crate (because they are not `Send`).
/// 3. JS <-> Rust in different contexts: the `Promise` are [not transferable
///    between contexts][transferable], so this is impossible.
/// 4. JS <-> JS + Rust, this is possible, but safe since the Future is being
///    driven by JS in the same thread. If a Promise metaphor is desired, then
///    this must be built with JS talking to JS, because 3.
