Coroutines for asynchronous programming and more

There are many approaches to this problem, and in Kotlin we take a very flexible one by providing Coroutine support at the language level and delegating most of the functionality to libraries, much in line with Kotlin’s philosophy.

As a bonus, coroutines not only open the doors to asynchronous programming, but also provide a wealth of other possibilities such as concurrency, actors, etc.
