[libcxx-commits] [libcxx] [libc++] Deprecate non-standard std::launch::any extension (PR #173397)

[via libcxx-commits]

https://github.com/sohail103 created https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/173397

std::launch::any was a draft C++11 feature that was removed before the final standard. It has remained in libc++ as an extension. This patch marks it as deprecated to warn users who might be relying on it unintentionally.

Updated the future header and added a verify test to check for the deprecation warning.

Fixes #173219
