Proposal: `await.all {...}` for parallelism

[manuelbarzi]

a few little corrections...

// NOTE async {} = asynchronous scope (it groups parallel awaits => `await||`)
// NOTE p? = function call that returns a promise (? = just and index)

async {
    const x1 = await || p1()
    const x2 = await p2(x1)
    const x3 = await || p3()
    const x10 = await p10(x2, x3)

    let x4, x5, x6

    async {
        x4 = await || p4(x1, x2)
        x5 = await || p5(x2, x3)
        x6 = await p6(x4, x5, x10)
    }

    let x7, x8, x9

    async {
        x7 = await || p7(x4, x6)
        x8 = await p8(x6, x7)
        x9 = await || p9(x5, x6)
    }

    await p11(x8, x9)
}

Promise.resolve()
    .then(() => Promise.all([p1(), p3()]))
    .then((x1, x3) =>
        p2(x1)
            .then(x2 =>
                p10(x2, x3)
                    .then(x10 => {
                        let x4, x5, x6

                        return Promise.resolve()
                            .then(() => Promise.all([p4(x1, x2), p5(x2, x3
)]))
                            .then(results => [x4, x5] = results)
                            .then(() => p6(x4, x5, x10))
                            .then(_x6 => x6 = _x6)
                            .then(() => {
                                let x7, x8, x9

                                return Promise.resolve()
                                    .then(() => Promise.all([p7(x4, x6), p9(
x5, x6)]))
                                    .then(results => [x7, x9] = results)
                                    .then(() => p8(x6, x7))
                                    .then(_x8 => x8 = _x8)
                                    .then(() => p11(x8, x9))
                            })
                    })
            )
    )
