* Sends a message asynchronously and returns a [[scala.concurrent.Future]]
* holding the eventual reply message; this means that the target actor
* needs to send the result to the `sender` reference provided. The Future
* will be completed with an [[akka.pattern.AskTimeoutException]] after the
* given timeout has expired; this is independent from any timeout applied
* while awaiting a result for this future (i.e. in
* `Await.result(..., timeout)`).
*
* <b>Warning:</b>
* When using future callbacks, inside actors you need to carefully avoid closing over
* the containing actors object, i.e. do not call methods or access mutable state
* on the enclosing actor from within the callback. This would break the actor
* encapsulation and may introduce synchronization bugs and race conditions because
* the callback will be scheduled concurrently to the enclosing actor. Unfortunately
* there is not yet a way to detect these illegal accesses at compile time.
*
* <b>Recommended usage:</b>
*
* {{{
* final Future<Object> f = Patterns.ask(worker, request, timeout);
* f.onSuccess(new Procedure<Object>() {
* public void apply(Object o) {
* nextActor.tell(new EnrichedResult(request, o));
