A new version of coroutines is on its way. This is a breaking change for old software since it moves the source code into a subdirectory called co. This is because the old repo forced you to do #include "coroutine.h" and that is a little ambiguous, especially if you have another coroutine.h in your include path (like we did at Cruise).

The new version also adds non-invasive coroutines which allow you to invoke a coroutine without passing a co::Coroutine pointer or reference to it. This works by keeping the current coroutine in a thread-local variable called co::self that you can access from within a coroutine to get the current coroutine. It also adds functions like co::Wait to wait on the current coroutine.
