This is a helper function in a similar vein to
gtk4-rs's install_action_async () for widgets.
It allows applications to install actions
that use async/await without having to manually
create a glib::MainContext in the callback.

This should probably just call the helper function from #902 once merged.

Why require Clone here? I think it would be better if you would instead use an Rc instead of a Box for storing the callback. Then you get cloning for free and don't make it the user's problem.
