defer (2 of 3 overloads)

Submits a completion token or function object for execution.

template<
    typename Executor,
    typename CompletionToken = DEFAULT>
DEDUCED defer(
    const Executor & ex,
    CompletionToken && token = DEFAULT,
    typename enable_if< execution::is_executor< Executor >::value||is_executor< Executor >::value >::type *  = 0);

This function has the following effects:
