/// `Exclusive` provides only _mutable_ access, also referred to as _exclusive_
/// access to the underlying value. It provides no _immutable_, or _shared_
/// access to the underlying value.
///
/// While this may seem not very useful, it allows `Exclusive` to _unconditionally_
/// implement [`Sync`]. Indeed, the safety requirements of `Sync` state that for `Exclusive`
/// to be `Sync`, it must be sound to _share_ across threads, that is, it must be sound
/// for `&Exclusive` to cross thread boundaries. By design, a `&Exclusive` has no API
/// whatsoever, making it useless, thus harmless, thus memory safe.
///
/// Certain constructs like [`Future`]s can only be used with _exclusive_ access,
/// and are often `Send` but not `Sync`, so `Exclusive` can be used as hint to the
/// Rust compiler that something is `Sync` in practice.
///
/// ## Examples
/// Using a non-`Sync` future prevents the wrapping struct from being `Sync`
/// ```compile_fail
/// use core::cell::Cell;
///
/// async fn other() {}
/// fn assert_sync<T: Sync>(t: T) {}
/// struct State<F> {
///     future: F
/// }
///
/// assert_sync(State {
///     future: async {
///         let cell = Cell::new(1);
///         let cell_ref = &cell;
///         other().await;
///         let value = cell_ref.get();
///     }
/// });
/// ```
///
/// `Exclusive` ensures the struct is `Sync` without stripping the future of its
/// functionality.
/// ```
/// #![feature(exclusive_wrapper)]
/// use core::cell::Cell;
/// use core::sync::Exclusive;
///
/// async fn other() {}
/// fn assert_sync<T: Sync>(t: T) {}
/// struct State<F> {
///     future: Exclusive<F>
/// }
///
/// assert_sync(State {
///     future: Exclusive::new(async {
///         let cell = Cell::new(1);
///         let cell_ref = &cell;
///         other().await;
///         let value = cell_ref.get();
///     })
/// });
/// ```
///
/// ## Parallels with a mutex
/// In some sense, `Exclusive` can be thought of as a _compile-time_ version of
/// a mutex, as the borrow-checker guarantees that only one `&mut` can exist
/// for any value. This is a parallel with the fact that
/// `&` and `&mut` references together can be thought of as a _compile-time_
/// version of a read-write lock.
