Please add cl-async-future

[orthecreedence]

cl-async-future is a standalone conversion of the futures library included in cl-async.

Thanks!

Are you going to delete cl-async-future.asd from cl-async?

[orthecreedence]

Once cl-async-future is in quicklisp, I'm going to rip out all the future stuff rom cl-async. In the meantime, I could fold the cl-async-future.asd definition back into cl-async.asd to avoid confusing ASDF.

I can't add the new one if the old one remains in place.

Thoughts on how to transition things between now and the next Quicklisp release would be helpful. I'd like to make things seamless, so people using cl-async on git won't get any errors until cl-async/cl-async-future are updated on Quicklisp.

[quicklisp]

I recommend making it so that people who use cl-async from git also get
cl-async-future from git.

Quicklisp is a snapshot of systems that all work together. Right now
cl-async and cl-async-future can't work together, because they have
conflicting system definition files.

Thanks, I'll make this change in cl-async and update the docs.
