Support await syntax for async methods #55

Open Boddlnagg opened 6 years ago

This should be possible with Rust's coroutines support, see https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/unstable-book/language-features/generators.html and https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/43122.

We might need to provide our own macros similar to https://github.com/alexcrichton/futures-await.

I must say that it feels quite nice!
