/**
* Notes about these type definitions:
*
* - Callbacks returning multiple completion values using multiple arguments are not supported by these types.
* Prefer to use Node's style by grouping your values in a single object or array.
* Support for this kind of callback is blocked by Microsoft/TypeScript#5453
*
* - For ease of use, `asyncDone` lets you pass callback functions with a result type `T` instead of `T | undefined`.
* This matches Node's types but can lead to unsound code being typechecked.
*
* The following code typechecks but fails at runtime:
* ```typescript
* async function getString(): Promise<string> {
* return "Hello, World!";
* }
*
* async function evilGetString(): Promise<string> {
* throw new Error("Hello, World!");
* }
*
* function cb(err: Error | null, result: string): void {
* // This is unsound because `result` is `undefined` when `err` is not `null`.
* console.log(result.toLowerCase());
* }
*
* asyncDone(getString, cb); // Prints `hello, world!`
* asyncDone(evilGetString, cb); // Runtime error: `TypeError: Cannot read property 'toLowerCase' of undefined`
* ```
*
* Enforcing stricter callbacks would require developers to use `result?: string` and assert the existence
* of the result either by checking it directly or using the `!` assertion operator after testing for errors.
* ```typescript
* function stricterCb1(err: Error | null, result?: string): void {
* if (err !== null) {
* console.error(err);
* return;
* }
* console.log(result!.toLowerCase());
* }
*
* function stricterCb2(err: Error | null, result?: string): void {
* if (result === undefined) {
* console.error("Undefined result. Error:);
* console.error(err);
* return;
* }
* console.log(result.toLowerCase());
* }
* ```
