-Enables the use of [`AsyncLocalStorage`][] backed by `AsyncContextFrame` rather
-than the default implementation which relies on async\_hooks. This new model is
-implemented very differently and so could have differences in how context data
-flows within the application. As such, it is presently recommended to be sure
-your application behaviour is unaffected by this change before using it in
