-Asyncband retains semaphore-based fair scheduling and substantially rewrote
-RwLock's guard lifecycle. The private asyncband/src/rwlock/access.rs
-implementation owns acquired permits in RAII tokens that release them through
-Asyncband's usize-based semaphore on drop. Guards carry no destructor of their
-own and project data by moving their token. Downgrading establishes a read
-token before releasing the other permits. The public documentation and
-examples were rewritten around access, projection, and owned lifetimes. The
-standard ASF source headers cover these substantial modifications contributed

 Acquisition has no semaphore-close error, nonblocking methods return Option,
 and max_readers is any NonZeroUsize instead of Tokio's restricted range. Mapped
