/// Application-callback execution context.
/// A bag of data that collects information along a callstack.
/// It is created on the stack at core entry points, and stored internally
/// as a thread-local variable.
///
/// There are three key differences between this structure and ExecCtx:
///   1. ApplicationCallbackExecCtx builds a list of application-level
///      callbacks, but ExecCtx builds a list of internal callbacks to invoke.
///   2. ApplicationCallbackExecCtx invokes its callbacks only at destruction;
///      there is no explicit Flush method.
///   3. If more than one ApplicationCallbackExecCtx is created on the thread's
///      stack, only the one closest to the base of the stack is actually
///      active and this is the only one that enqueues application callbacks.
///      (Unlike ExecCtx, it is not feasible to prevent multiple of these on the
///      stack since the executing application callback may itself enter core.
///      However, the new one created will just pass callbacks through to the
///      base one and those will not be executed until the return to the
///      destructor of the base one, preventing unlimited stack growth.)
///
/// This structure exists because application callbacks may themselves cause a
/// core re-entry (e.g., through a public API call) and if that call in turn
/// causes another application-callback, there could be arbitrarily growing
/// stacks of core re-entries. Instead, any application callbacks instead should
/// not be invoked until other core work is done and other application callbacks
/// have completed. To accomplish this, any application callback should be
/// enqueued using ApplicationCallbackExecCtx::Enqueue .
///
/// CONVENTIONS:
/// - Instances of this must ALWAYS be constructed on the stack, never
///   heap allocated.
/// - Instances of this are generally constructed before ExecCtx when needed.
///   The only exception is for ExecCtx's that are explicitly flushed and
///   that survive beyond the scope of the function that can cause application
///   callbacks to be invoked (e.g., in the timer thread).
///
/// Generally, core entry points that may trigger application-level callbacks
/// will have the following declarations:
///
/// ApplicationCallbackExecCtx callback_exec_ctx;
/// ExecCtx exec_ctx;
///
/// This ordering is important to make sure that the ApplicationCallbackExecCtx
/// is destroyed after the ExecCtx (to prevent the re-entry problem described
/// above, as well as making sure that ExecCtx core callbacks are invoked first)
