    /// The `closure_returning_async_block` lint detects cases where users
    /// write a closure that returns an async block.
    ///
    /// ### Example
    ///
    /// ```rust
    /// #![warn(closure_returning_async_block)]
    /// let c = |x: &str| async {};
    /// ```
    ///
    /// {{produces}}
    ///
    /// ### Explanation
    ///
    /// Using an async closure is preferable over a closure that returns an
    /// async block, since async closures are less restrictive in how its
    /// captures are allowed to be used.
    ///
    /// For example, this code does not work with a closure returning an async
    /// block:
    ///
    /// ```rust,compile_fail
    /// async fn callback(x: &str) {}
    ///
    /// let captured_str = String::new();
    /// let c = move || async {
    ///     callback(&captured_str).await;
    /// };
    /// ```
    ///
    /// But it does work with async closures:
    ///
    /// ```rust
    /// async fn callback(x: &str) {}
    ///
    /// let captured_str = String::new();
    /// let c = async move || {
    ///     callback(&captured_str).await;
    /// };
    /// ```
