Provides fundamental abstractions for doing asynchronous
programming in R using promises. Asynchronous programming is useful
for allowing a single R process to orchestrate multiple tasks in the
background while also attending to something else. Semantics are
similar to 'JavaScript' promises, but with a syntax that is idiomatic
R.
