           Summary: Add a Promise type to WebIDL, and make it not
                    distinguishable from anything

We want to do this anyway to handle Promise return values.  Making it not
distinguishable will prevent unwanted unioning and overloading.

Conversion to the type should use the default Promise.cast, not normal
interface type detection, so it'll work with thenables and the like.
