Description
Currently when using streamed transfer mode, you can return an IEnumerable and WCF will return a new item as it arrives from the network. This results in a thread blocking waiting on MoveNext() waiting for the next item. WCF should support IAsyncEnumerable in this scenario so that a thread isn't being blocked waiting for the next item from the network.
We also support passing a single parameter to an operation which is of type IEnumerable and WCF will read items from this and serialize it one item at a time and send to the service. We should also support asynchronously reading from a passed IAsyncEnumerable.
