/**
* A stage of a possibly asynchronous computation, that performs an
* action or computes a value when another CompletionStage completes.
* A stage completes upon termination of its computation, but this may
* in turn trigger other dependent stages. The functionality defined
* in this interface takes only a few basic forms, which expand out to
* a larger set of methods to capture a range of usage styles:
*
* <ul>
*
* <li>The computation performed by a stage may be expressed as a
* Function, Consumer, or Runnable (using methods with names including
* <em>apply</em>, <em>accept</em>, or <em>run</em>, respectively)
* depending on whether it requires arguments and/or produces results.
* For example:
* <pre> {@code
* stage.thenApply(x -> square(x))
* .thenAccept(x -> System.out.print(x))
* .thenRun(() -> System.out.println());}</pre>
*
* An additional form (<em>compose</em>) allows the construction of
* computation pipelines from functions returning completion stages.
*
* <p>Any argument to a stage's computation is the outcome of a
* triggering stage's computation.
*
* <li>One stage's execution may be triggered by completion of a
* single stage, or both of two stages, or either of two stages.
* Dependencies on a single stage are arranged using methods with
* prefix <em>then</em>. Those triggered by completion of
* <em>both</em> of two stages may <em>combine</em> their results or
* effects, using correspondingly named methods. Those triggered by
* <em>either</em> of two stages make no guarantees about which of the
* results or effects are used for the dependent stage's computation.
*
* <li>Dependencies among stages control the triggering of
* computations, but do not otherwise guarantee any particular
* ordering. Additionally, execution of a new stage's computations may
* be arranged in any of three ways: default execution, default
* asynchronous execution (using methods with suffix <em>async</em>
* that employ the stage's default asynchronous execution facility),
* or custom (via a supplied {@link Executor}). The execution
* properties of default and async modes are specified by
* CompletionStage implementations, not this interface. Methods with
* explicit Executor arguments may have arbitrary execution
* properties, and might not even support concurrent execution, but
* are arranged for processing in a way that accommodates asynchrony.
*
* <li>Two method forms ({@link #handle handle} and {@link
* #whenComplete whenComplete}) support unconditional computation
* whether the triggering stage completed normally or exceptionally.
* Method {@link #exceptionally exceptionally} supports computation
* only when the triggering stage completes exceptionally, computing a
* replacement result, similarly to the java {@code catch} keyword.
* In all other cases, if a stage's computation terminates abruptly
* with an (unchecked) exception or error, then all dependent stages
* requiring its completion complete exceptionally as well, with a
* {@link CompletionException} holding the exception as its cause. If
* a stage is dependent on <em>both</em> of two stages, and both
* complete exceptionally, then the CompletionException may correspond
* to either one of these exceptions. If a stage is dependent on
* <em>either</em> of two others, and only one of them completes
* exceptionally, no guarantees are made about whether the dependent
* stage completes normally or exceptionally. In the case of method
* {@code whenComplete}, when the supplied action itself encounters an
* exception, then the stage completes exceptionally with this
* exception unless the source stage also completed exceptionally, in
* which case the exceptional completion from the source stage is
* given preference and propagated to the dependent stage.
*
* </ul>
*
* <p>All methods adhere to the above triggering, execution, and
* exceptional completion specifications (which are not repeated in
* individual method specifications). Additionally, while arguments
* used to pass a completion result (that is, for parameters of type
* {@code T}) for methods accepting them may be null, passing a null
* value for any other parameter will result in a {@link
* NullPointerException} being thrown.
*
* <p>Method form {@link #handle handle} is the most general way of
* creating a continuation stage, unconditionally performing a
* computation that is given both the result and exception (if any) of
* the triggering CompletionStage, and computing an arbitrary result.
* Method {@link #whenComplete whenComplete} is similar, but preserves
* the result of the triggering stage instead of computing a new one.
* Because a stage's normal result may be {@code null}, both methods
* should have a computation structured thus:
*
* <pre>{@code (result, exception) -> {
* if (exception == null) {
* // triggering stage completed normally
* } else {
* // triggering stage completed exceptionally
* }
* }}</pre>
*
* <p>This interface does not define methods for initially creating,
* forcibly completing normally or exceptionally, probing completion
* status or results, or awaiting completion of a stage.
* Implementations of CompletionStage may provide means of achieving
* such effects, as appropriate. Method {@link #toCompletableFuture}
* enables interoperability among different implementations of this
* interface by providing a common conversion type.
