src/core. exec_ctx is now a thread_local pointer of type ExecCtx instead of
grpc_exec_ctx which is initialized whenever ExecCtx is instantiated. ExecCtx
also keeps track of the previous exec_ctx so that nesting of exec_ctx is
allowed. This means that there is only one exec_ctx being used at any
time. Also, grpc_exec_ctx_finish is called in the destructor of the
object, and the previous exec_ctx is restored to avoid breaking current
functionality. The code still explicitly calls grpc_exec_ctx_finish
because removing all such instances causes the code to break.
- When receiving a Trailers-Only response, return the metadata as
trailing metadata instead of initial metadata.
- Send Trailers-Only response when we have no non-default initial metadata,
no message to send, and trailing metadata to send.
