Research direction

Start with the linked gcc-warnings tree and inspect the warnings produced by -Wextra and -Wpedantic in the library and tests. Check the handling of -Wmissing-field-initializers against the cited GCC issue, then verify that the warning cleanup is complete without unrelated changes.

Description

https://github.com/lukester1975/stdexec/tree/gcc-warnings if you would and it's any good...

Happy to fix it up as directed if it's useful. There's only a few in the library itself; mostly in the tests.

Thanks

(gcc manual seems wrong r.e. -Wmissing-field-initializers in c++ code: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39589, hence turning that off)
