Async Data Factory

This is an example demonstrating the construction of async state with App::data_factory.

Reason:

Use of a data_factory would make sense in these situations:

• When async state does not necessarily have to be shared between workers/threads.
• When an async state would spawn tasks. If state was centralized there could be a possibility the tasks get an unbalanced distribution on the workers/threads.

Context

The real world difference can be vary by the work you are doing but in general it's a good idea to spread your similarly-expensive async tasks evenly between threads and have as little cross threads synchronization as possible.
