Research direction

Start at the configure_file call in the linked commit diff and inspect how the generated asio_config.hpp path is added to the target include directories. Done means configuration writes the header under the binary directory, the generated include directory is exposed to stdexec, and the source tree is not modified.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

https://github.com/NVIDIA/stdexec/commit/35a3e31590e736fbb7dd55324b3a7f991a059ce3#diff-1e7de1ae2d059d21e1dd75d5812d5a34b0222cef273b7c3a2af62eb747f9d20aR440-R441

set(ASIOEXEC_ASIO_CONFIG_FILE_PATH ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/include/asioexec)
configure_file(include/asioexec/asio_config.hpp.in ${ASIOEXEC_ASIO_CONFIG_FILE_PATH}/asio_config.hpp)

I think setting the output to ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/stdexec_generated/include/asioexec and then added via target_include_directories(stdexec PUBLIC ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/stdexec_generated/include) is the better way here.
