 * @typedef Eina_Future_Cb

 * A callback used to inform that a future was resolved.
 * Usually this callback is called from a clean context, that is, from the
 * main loop or some platform defined safe context. However there are
 * 2 exceptions:
 *
 * @li eina_future_cancel() was used, it's called immediately in the
 * context that called cancel using `ECANCELED` as error.
 *
 * @li eina_future_then(), eina_future_then_from_desc(), eina_future_chain(), eina_future_chain_array()
 * or similar failed due to invalid pointer or memory allocation. Then the callback is called from the
 * failed context using `EINVAL` or `ENOMEM` as errors and @p dead_future will be @c NULL.
 *
 * @param[in] data The data provided by the user
 *
 * @param[in] value An #Eina_Value which contains the operation result. Before using
 * the @p value, its type must be checked in order to avoid errors. This is needed because
 * if an operation fails the #Eina_Value type will be #EINA_VALUE_TYPE_ERROR
 * which is a different type than the expected operation result.
 *
 * @param[in] dead_future A pointer to the future that was completed.
 *
 * @return An #Eina_Value to pass to the next #Eina_Future in the chain (if any).
 * If there is no need to convert the received value, it's @b recommended
 * to passthrough the @p value argument. If you need to convert to a different type
 * or generate a new value, use @c eina_value_setup() on @b another #Eina_Value
 * and return it. By returning a promise #Eina_Value (eina_promise_as_value()) the
 * whole chain will wait until the promise is resolved in
 * order to continue its execution.
 * Note that the value contents must survive this function scope,
 * that is, do @b not use stack allocated blobs, arrays, structures or types that
 * keep references to memory you give. Values will be automatically cleaned up
 * using @c eina_value_flush() once they are unused (no more future or futures
 * returned a new value).
 *
 * @note The returned value @b can be an #EINA_VALUE_TYPE_PROMISE! (see eina_promise_as_value() and
 * eina_future_as_value()) In this case the future chain will wait until the promise is resolved.

 * @defgroup Eina_Promise Eina Promises

 *
 * @brief Promises are a programming paradigm that simplifies synchronization when concurrent execution is present.
 *
 * Since C does not natively support Promises the Eina library provides the Eina_Promise and Eina_Future objects.
 *
 * In procedural languages like C if you need a value which is not yet available, for instance because
 * it takes a long time to calculate or has to be fetched from a remote server, you typically have to wait.
 *
 * Other languages however can return a Promise and continue execution immediately. A promise acts as a placeholder
 * for the requested value: the value is not available yet but will be at some point in the future.
 *
 * With a promise in hand you can attach callbacks to be triggered when the value becomes available (i.e. when
 * the promise is fulfilled) and then continue your calculations. You can even pass the promise to other methods
 * which will then be executed as values become available, forming complex chains.
 *
 * An Eina_Promise can be considered as an object with the sole purpose of emitting the "Promise Resolved" event.
 * Eina_Future are callbacks attached to this object to be called when the event is emitted. The promised value is
 * passed to the callbacks whenever it's available.
 *
 * Here's a typical example:
 *
 * @code
 * #include <Ecore.h>
 *
 * static void
 * _promise_cancel(void *data, Eina_Promise *p EINA_UNUSED)
 * {
 *   Ctx *ctx = data;
 *   // In case the promise is canceled we must stop the timer!
 *   ecore_timer_del(ctx->timer);
 *   free(ctx);
 * }
 *
 * static Eina_Bool

 * This function aims to be used in conjunction with eina_future_chain(),

 * error handling and #Eina_Value type checks.
 * It uses three callbacks to inform the user about the future's
 * result and life cycle. They are:
 *
 * @li Eina_Future_Cb_Easy_Desc::success: This callback is called when
 * the future execution was successful, that is, no errors occurred and
 * the result type matches Eina_Future_Cb_Easy_Desc::success_type. In case
 * Eina_Future_Cb_Easy_Desc::success_type is @c NULL, this function will
 * only be called if the future did not report an error. The value returned
 * by this function will be propagated to the next future in the chain (if any).
 *
 * @li Eina_Future_Cb_Easy_Desc::error: This callback is called when
 * the future result is an error or Eina_Future_Cb_Easy_Desc::success_type
 * does not match the future result type. The value returned
 * by this function will be propagated to the next future in the chain (if any).
 *
 * @li Eina_Future_Cb_Easy_Desc::free: Called after the future was freed and any resources
 * allocated must be freed at this point. This callback is always called.
