      Add support for a single level form of subsidiary deadlines + uninterruptibility in Interruptible with a syntax that looks like:

      future.get(interruptible->makeTimer(deadline, code));
      

      That syntax should produce a type convertible to an Interruptible* which wraps underlying calls to checkForInterrupt or waitForConditionOrInterruptUntil calls in the appropriate guards. It should replace the more wordy:

      interruptible->runWithDeadline(deadline, code, [&]{
        future.get(interruptible);
      });
      

      when a subsidiary deadline or uninterruptible invocation is needed at the very bottom of the callstack.

      That type should not nest and should not alter the state of the parent interruptible
