Provides an async reactor for handling file descriptors in a background thread.
The purpose of this crate is to provide a standardized means of creating generic std::future::Future types which need to register file descriptors -- and which are independent of a particular async runtime -- as opposed to rolling their own reactors on a background thread. Futures created with this would be universally compatible with both async-std and tokio, and share the same background thread.
- The reactor's background thread is spawned on the first time that the reactor handle is fetched.
- Each file descriptor registers an interest to listen for.
- On registering a new file descriptor, a pipe is used to interrupt the poll operation.
