// Package run implements an actor-runner with deterministic teardown. It is
// somewhat similar to package errgroup, except it does not require actor
// goroutines to understand context semantics. This makes it suitable for use in
// more circumstances; for example, goroutines which are handling connections
// from net.Listeners, or scanning input from a closable io.Reader.
