/**
 \defgroup AsynCallsAPI Async-Calls API
 \par
 * A call is asynchronous if the caller proceeds after the call is made,
 * and the callee receives the call during the next main loop iteration.
 * Asynchronous calls help avoid nasty call-me-when-I-call-you loops
 * that humans often have trouble understanding or implementing correctly.
 \par
 * Asynchronous calls are currently implemented via Squid events. The call
 * event stores the pointer to the callback function and cbdata-protected
 * callback data. To call a method of an object, the method is wrapped
 * in a method-specific, static callback function and the pointer to the
 * object is passed to the wrapper. For the method call to be safe, the
 * class must be cbdata-enabled.
 \par
 * You do not have to use the macros below to make or receive asynchronous
 * method calls, but they give you a uniform interface and handy call
 * debugging.
