Initializing tcp::socket with boost::ref(io_context) results in compilation error. It looks like a regression in boost::asio.

It can be reproduced easily with below code.

`#include <boost/asio.hpp>

include <boost/core/ref.hpp>

int main() { boost::asio::io_context io_context; boost::asio::ip::tcp::socket socket(boost::ref(io_context)); return 0; } `

Error details : boost/asio/detail/io_object_impl.hpp:101:40: error: ‘const class boost::reference_wrapperboost::asio::io_context’ has no member named ‘get_executor’; did you mean ‘get_pointer’? implementationexecutor(context.get_executor(),



I have attached a patch, which works as a workaround for the issue. (file: boost/asio/detail/io_object_impl.hpp)
