/// @ingroup userver_concurrency userver_containers
///
/// A storage that allows one to start detached tasks; cancels and waits for
/// unfinished tasks completion at the destructor. Provides CancelAndWait to
/// explicitly cancel tasks (recommended).
///
/// Usable for detached tasks that capture references to resources with a
/// limited lifetime. You must guarantee that the resources are available while
/// the BackgroundTaskStorage is alive.
///
/// ## Usage synopsis
///
/// @snippet concurrent/background_task_storage_test.cpp  Sample
///
/// ## Lifetime of task's captures
///
/// All the advice from utils::Async is applicable here.
///
/// BackgroundTaskStorage is always stored as a class field. Tasks that are
/// launched inside it (or moved inside it, for BackgroundTaskStorageCore)
/// can safely access fields declared before it, but not after it:
///
/// @code
/// class Frobnicator {
///   // ...
///
///  private:
///   void Launch(const Dependencies& stuff);
///
///   // ...
///   Foo foo_;
///   concurrent::BackgroundTaskStorage bts_;
///   Bar bar_;
///   // ...
/// };
///
/// void Frobnicator::Launch(const Dependencies& stuff) {
///   int x{};
///   bts_.AsyncDetach([this, &stuff, &x] {
///     // BUG! All local variables will be gone.
///     // They should be captured by move or by copy.
///     Use(x);
///
///     // OK, because foo_ will be destroyed after bts_.
///     Use(foo_);
///
///     // BUG, because bar_ will be destroyed before bts_.
///     Use(bar_);
///
///     // Most likely a BUG! Unless `stuff` is contained within other fields,
///     // there is probably no guarantee that it outlives `bts_`.
///     // It should have been captured by move or by copy instead.
///     Use(stuff);
///   });
/// }
/// @endcode
///
/// Generally, it's a good idea to declare `bts_` after most other fields
/// to avoid lifetime bugs. An example of fool-proof code:
///
/// @code
///  private:
///   Foo foo_;
///   Bar bar_;
///
///   // bts_ must be the last field for lifetime reasons.
///   concurrent::BackgroundTaskStorage bts_;
/// };
/// @endcode
///
/// Components and their clients can always be safely captured by reference:
///
/// @see @ref scripts/docs/en/userver/component_system.md
///
/// So for a BackgroundTaskStorage stored in a component, its tasks can only
/// safely use the fields declared before the BTS field, as well as everything
/// from the components, on which the current component depends.
