lifetime elision: document conformance of 'async fn' to 'fn'.

src/test/ui/self/elision/README.md

@@ -42,3 +42,34 @@ In each case, we test the following patterns:
 - `self: Box<Pin<XXX>>`
 
 In the non-reference cases, `Pin` causes errors so we substitute `Rc`.
+
+### `async fn`
+
+For each of the tests above we also check that `async fn` behaves as an `fn` would.
+These tests are in files named `*-async.rs`.
+
+Legends:
+- ✓ ⟹ Yes / Pass
+- X ⟹ No
+- α ⟹ lifetime mismatch
+- β ⟹ cannot infer an appropriate lifetime
+- γ ⟹ missing lifetime specifier
