Drop order of local variables in async fn

help
1

In the code below, let's say we're awaiting a() and abort the future returned from a() by calling handle.abort().

In this case, is there a defined guarantee regarding the drop order of local variables, data and my_fut?


```rust
async fn a() {
	let data = get_data();
    let my_fut = fut(&data);
    
    my_fut.await; // cancelled here
}

fn fut(data: &MyData) -> MyFuture<'_> {
    MyFuture { data }
}

fn main() {
    let handle: JoinHandle<()> = tokio::spawn(a());
    handle.abort(); // cancels the task;
}

Variables in a scope are dropped in reverse order of declaration, so my_fut first, then data:
