Detailed Description

AsyncSpinner is a spinner that does not conform to the abstract Spinner interface. Instead, it spins asynchronously when you call start(), and stops when either you call stop(), ros::shutdown() is called, or its destructor is called.

AsyncSpinner is reference counted internally, so if you copy one it will continue spinning until all copies have destructed (or stop() has been called on one of them)
