The sender in this case is a thread. The tokio side is the receiver.

The type implements `Write` which is blocking by definition, adding a
`block_in_place` inside it is never correct.

If mixing of blocking/async code is really a concern (which I don't
think it is), I'd rather not expose `from_sender` (or under a different
name as an `unsafe fn`) and instead only have a function creating the
*tuple* of `(SenderWriter, Receiver)` with appropriate documentation
about the sync/async nature of the two sides.

But I don't think this is truly warranted.
