:mrdocs:

If `*this` refers to a stop state and that stop state has not had a stop requested yet, atomically request a stop on that stop state, invoke all registered callbacks in an unspecified order, and finally return `true`. Otherwise, return `false`. If this function returns `true`, the call synchronizes with any call to `stop_requested` that returns `true`. A call to `request_stop` that is potentially concurrent with a call to `stop_requested`, `stop_possible`, or `request_stop` does not cause a data race.
