Await Syntax Discussion Summary

[nikomatsakis]

@burntsushi

Thanks for posting this. I hadn’t seen https://github.com/inejge/await-syntax before (and I was looking for something like that). That’s a testament to just how hard it is to keep up with this discussion.

I do want to commend @inejge for preparing that repository as well. I've been following along with this thread and I've noticed that, along the way, a number of people have made real efforts to try and help people step back and help everyone gain overall perspective, whether that be through the straw poll, summary posts/gists like this one by @HeroicKatora (which also lists a ton of summary posts itself!), or even just careful exposition of examples. I just wanted to say a big "thank you" to such folks. (As someone who hadn't been following the debate in detail until recently, these kinds of things were also super helpful to me.)
