For asynchronous tests, the contract between test file and test runner
is implicit: runners are expected to inspect the source code for
references to a global `$DONE` identifier.
Promote a more explicit contract between test file and test runner by
introducing a new frontmatter "tag", `async`. This brings asynchronous
test configuration in-line with other configuration mechanisms and also
provides a more natural means of test filtering.
The modifications to test files was made programatically using the
`grep` and `sed` utilities:
$ grep "\$DONE" test/ -r --files-with-match --null | \
xargs -0 sed -i 's/^\(flags:\s*\)\[/\1[async, /g'
$ grep "\$DONE" test/ -rl --null | \
xargs -0 grep -E '^flags:' --files-without-match --null | \
xargs -0 sed -i 's/^---\*\//flags: [async]\n---*\//'
Add tests that assert behavior when a Promise is resolved with another
Promise whose `then` method has been overridden. Because all objects
with a `then` method are treated equivalently, the presence of a
[[PromiseState]] internal slot should have no effect on program
behavior.
These tests guard against a faulty optimization originally implemented
in V8:

Remove files that tested both PerformPromiseThen and
PromiseResolveFunction in favor of new tests that test
PromiseResolveFunction more directly and completely.
Uniformly and exhaustively test the generic aspects of the static- and
instance Promise methods, including:
- function `length` properties
- function `name` properties
- method property descriptors
