/// This object must be placed on the stack when the context is yielding (INTERNAL)

/// The continuation constructor is the last thing executed before a context
/// yields. The continuation destructor is the first thing executed when a
/// context continues. This is not placed by a normal user wishing to context
/// switch, only a low-level library creator actually implementing the context
/// switch itself. The placement of this object must be correct. Generally,
/// we construct the `continuation` as an argument to `yield_context` as such
/// `yield_context{continuation{}}`. This ensures the continuation destructor
/// executes before control continues beyond the yield_context call itself and
/// ties this sequence together neatly.
///
/// The instance contains references to some callables which must remain valid.
///
/// - predicate (NOT YET USED)
/// A wakeup condition. This should be a simple boolean function which
/// tests whether the context should be woken up. The continuation references
/// this to convey the condition to a scheduler which may test many predicates
/// while contexts are asleep and then determine a schedule. This is an
/// alternative to waking up contexts first to test their predicates.
///
/// - interruptor
/// An interruption action. This is called when a context cannot wakeup on its
/// own after receiving an interruption without help from this action. Common
/// use for this is with yields to asio.
