Async Class

[Naveen Chawla]

Like this:

```js
class MyObject{
    constructor(){
        initializeAsync();
    }

    async initializeAsync(){
        await doSomething();
        await doSomethingElse();
        //etc.
    }
}
```

Of course if you wanted to await at the constructor call level (and await
inside the constructor itself), e.g.

```js
    const myObject = await new MyObject();
```

...then of course you would need the "async constructor" feature, like
you've requested, but then `new MyObject()` would return a promise.

Personally I have no problem with this:

It suffers from the same bug-set than you would get if you converted a
synchronous function to an asynchronous one (i.e. the need to await).
