ensureActive

Ensures that current scope is active.

If the job is no longer active, throws CancellationException. If the job was cancelled, thrown exception contains the original cancellation cause. This function does not do anything if there is no Job in the scope's coroutineContext.

This method is a drop-in replacement for the following code, but with more precise exception:

if (!isActive) {
    throw CancellationException()
}
