the call is executed at a later time on a different thread. the zoo_a*
calls are non-blocking, so (subject to the thread scheduling) usually
they will return before the request completes.

I'm trying to figure out how to use zookeeper's C API. In particular, what can I assume
about the execution of the completions passed to zoo_aget and zoo_aset? The documentation
for zoo_aset says the completion is the routine to invoke when the request
completes. Does this mean that the completion is called some arbitrary time after
the request completes, on a different thread? Or is it guaranteed to be executed on the
same thread as the thread initiating the zoo_aset call, and complete before zoo_aset
returns? Or something else?
In general, the 3.2.2 docs seem to be pretty thin on the C API. Pointers to
other relevant material would be appreciated.
