Summary: Introduce scoped values, which enable a method to share
immutable data both with its callees within a thread, and with child
threads. Scoped values are easier to reason about than thread-local
variables. They also have lower space and time costs, especially when
used together with virtual threads (JEP 444) and structured concurrency
(JEP 505).
