//! This module implements generator logic for the VM. Generators are functions
//! used during evaluation which can suspend their execution during their
//! control flow, and request that the VM do something.
//!
//! This is used to keep the VM's stack size constant even when evaluating
//! deeply nested recursive data structures.
//!
//! We implement generators using the [`genawaiter`] crate.
