/**
 * Provides a base class for implementing asynchronous function results.
 * 
 * Asynchronous operations are broken up into two separate operations
 * which are chained together by a #GAsyncReadyCallback. To begin
 * an asynchronous operation, provide a #GAsyncReadyCallback to the
 * asynchronous function. This callback will be triggered when the
 * operation has completed, and will be passed a #GAsyncResult instance
 * filled with the details of the operation's success or failure, the
 * object the asynchronous function was started for and any error codes
 * returned. The asynchronous callback function is then expected to call
 * the corresponding "_finish()" function, passing the object the
 * function was called for, the #GAsyncResult instance, and (optionally)
 * an @error to grab any error conditions that may have occurred.
 * 
 * The "_finish()" function for an operation takes the generic result
 * (of type #GAsyncResult) and returns the specific result that the
 * operation in question yields (e.g. a #GFileEnumerator for a
 * "enumerate children" operation). If the result or error status of the
 * operation is not needed, there is no need to call the "_finish()"
 * function; GIO will take care of cleaning up the result and error
 * information after the #GAsyncReadyCallback returns. You can pass
 * %NULL for the #GAsyncReadyCallback if you don't need to take any
 * action at all after the operation completes. Applications may also
 * take a reference to the #GAsyncResult and call "_finish()" later;
 * however, the "_finish()" function may be called at most once.
 * 
 * Example of a typical asynchronous operation flow:
 * |[<!-- language="C" -->
 * void _theoretical_frobnitz_async (Theoretical         *t,
 * GCancellable        *c,
 * GAsyncReadyCallback  cb,
 * gpointer             u);
 * 
 * gboolean _theoretical_frobnitz_finish (Theoretical   *t,
 * GAsyncResult  *res,
 * GError       **e);
 * 
 * static void
 * frobnitz_result_func (GObject      *source_object,
 * GAsyncResult *res,
 * gpointer      user_data)
 * {
 * gboolean success = FALSE;
 * 
 * success = _theoretical_frobnitz_finish (source_object, res, NULL);
 * 
 * if (success)
 * g_printf ("Hurray!\n");
 * else
 * g_printf ("Uh oh!\n");
 * 
 * ...
 * 
 * }
 * 
 * int main (int argc, void *argv[])
 * {
 * ...
 * 
 * _theoretical_frobnitz_async (theoretical_data,
 * NULL,
 * frobnitz_result_func,
 * NULL);
 * 
 * ...
 * }
 * ]|
 * 
 * The callback for an asynchronous operation is called only once, and is
 * always called, even in the case of a cancelled operation. On cancellation
 * the result is a %G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED error.
 * 
 * ## I/O Priority # {#io-priority}
 * 
 * Many I/O-related asynchronous operations have a priority parameter,
 * which is used in certain cases to determine the order in which
 * operations are executed. They are not used to determine system-wide
 * I/O scheduling. Priorities are integers, with lower numbers indicating
 * higher priority. It is recommended to choose priorities between
 * %G_PRIORITY_LOW and %G_PRIORITY_HIGH, with %G_PRIORITY_DEFAULT
 * as a default.
