Prepare RFC 3654 to be merged

We've been using "tracking issue" rather than "rust issue" recently,
so let's adjust that.  Let's also use sentence case for the title and
remove some remaining bits left over from the RFC template.  And let's
replace some Unicode characters that don't have ubiquitous font
support with ASCII equivalents.

 Rust now supports async fns and `-> impl Trait` in traits (acronymized as AFIT and RPITIT, respectively), but we currently lack the ability for users to declare additional bounds on the values returned by such functions. This is often referred to as the [Send bound problem][sbp], because the most acute manifestation is the inability to require that an `async fn` returns a `Send` future, but it is actually more general than both async fns and the `Send` trait (as discussed below).

 Async functions can be used in many ways. The most common configuration is to use a *work stealing* setup, in which spawned tasks may migrate between threads. In this case, all futures have to be `Send` to ensure that this migration is safe. But many applications prefer to use a *thread-per-core* setup, in which tasks, once spawned, never move to another thread (one important special case is where the entire application runs on a single thread to begin with, common in embedded environments but also in e.g. Google's Fuchsia operating system).
 
 For the most part, async functions today do not declare whether they are `Send` explicitly. Instead, when a future `F` is spawned on a multithreaded executor, the compiler determines whether it implements `Send`. So long as `F` results from an `async fn` that only calls other `async fn`s, the compiler can analyze the full range of possible executions. But there are limitations, especially around calls to async trait methods like `f.method()`. If the type of `f` is either a generic type or a `dyn` trait, the compiler cannot determine which impl will be used and hence cannot analyze the function body to see if it is `Send`. This can result in compilation errors.
