You may invoke this either as a function or as * a constructor; the behavior is the same. * * When run() is called on this fiber for the first time, `fn` will be * invoked as the first frame on a new stack. Execution will continue on * this new stack until `fn` returns, or Fiber.yield() is called. * * After the function returns the fiber is reset to original state and * may be restarted with another call to run(). */ new (fn: Function): Fiber; (fn: Function): Fiber; /** * `Fiber.current` will contain the currently-running Fiber.

This results in no loss of functionality because it is only * valid to yield from the currently running fiber anyway. * * Note also that `yield` is a reserved word in Javascript.
