    Makes a derivative Future which will be satisfied with the result of the parent.

    Makes a derivative Future which will be satisfied with the result of the parent. However, if it's interrupted, it will detach from the parent Future, satisfy itself with the exception raised to it, and won't propagate the interruption back to the parent Future.

    This is useful for when a Future is shared between many contexts, where it may not be useful to discard the underlying computation if just one context is no longer interested in the result. In particular, this is different from Future.masked in that it will prevent memory leaks if the parent Future will never be satisfied, because closures that are attached to this derivative Future will not be held onto by the killer Future.
