Description

As a follow up for #895, we should complete the coverage for cases where async is succeeded by a line terminator and does not create a syntax for an async function.

This should consider all forms of async functions, including declarations, expressions, generators, etc.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the coverage added for issue #895 and the repository's existing async-function tests. Add cases for each async function form, including declarations, expressions, and generators, when async is followed by a line terminator; done means the relevant non-async syntax cases are covered and the test suite passes.
