Remove some stack frames from `.async` calls

The `Context` argument is currently smuggled through TLS for
async-generated futures. The current infrastructure is closure-based,
and results in an extra 6 stack frames when .awaiting an async-generated
future!

```

```

While the long (medium?) term solution is to remove the use of TLS
entirely, we can improve things a bit in the meantime. In particular,
this commit does 2 things:

1. `get_task_context` has been inlined into `poll_with_tls_context`,
    removing 2 frames (16 and 17 above).
2. `set_task_context` now returns a guard type that resets the TLS
    rather than taking a closure, removing 2 frames (13 and 14 above).

We can also remove frame 18 by removing `poll_with_tls_context` in favor
of a `get_task_context` function which returns a guard, but that
requires adjusting the code generated for .await, so I've left that off
for now.
