I tried to come up with something some time ago, but it was not really
nice. You have to parse the entire generics manually, which ends up
looking horrible. I have been thinking some time now that a `generics`
fragment would actually be really useful in declarative macros.

I also thought that if we get even more `Has*` traits for intrusive
datastructures, we could add a unified derive macro that allows you to
just do:

    #[derive(Intrusive)]
    struct MyStruct {
        #[intrusive]
        work: Work<Self>,
        #[intrusive]
        timer: Timer<Self>,
        /* ... */
    }

But I thought that as long as we have only two intrusive structures, we
don't need this.
