`lib::Result` can invoke, capture the result and thereby represent ''either'' a result or a failure. The old implementation required a delegate, due to the complexities of integrating the `void` case. With C++23, `invoke_r` from the Stdlib handles those issues, allowing a cleaner formulation, with directly capturing the result into `lib::ItemWrapper`

/** @file result.hpp
|
||
** Intermediary value object to represent »either« an operation result or a failure.
|
||
** Some operation might have produced a value result or failed with an exception.
|
||
** Typically, the Result token is used _inline_ — immediately either invoking
|
||
** one of the member function or employing the built-in result type conversion.
|
||
** It will be copyable iff the result value is copyable. There is an implicit
|
||
** valid or failure state, which can be tested. Any attempt to get the value
|
||
** of an invalid result token will cause an exception to be thrown.
|
||
** - `Result<void>(bool)` can be used as a success marker
|
||
** - a `Result` instance can be created by _perfect forwarding_ from any type
|
||
** - any exception is supported for failure, wile direct construction is limited
|
||
** to lumiera::Error (to avoid ambiguities in ctor overload resolution)
|
||
** - an arbitrary functor or _callable_ can be invoked, capturing the result.
|
||
** @todo an _option-style_ interface could be provided for the »right value«
|
||
** (i.e. the exception caught), in case this turns out to be of any use;
|
||
** this kind of API design however is anything than trivial, given that
|
||
** any value can be thrown as exception in C++
|
||
** @see vault::ThreadJoinable usage example
|
||
** @see Result_test
