littledan a0ba18e963 Fix async/await memory leak
This patch closes a memory leak in async/await where the desugaring
was creating a situation analagous to that described in v8:5002.
Intermediate Promises were being kept alive, so a long-running loop
would cause linear memory usage on the heap. This patch returns
undefined to the 'then' callback passed into PerformPromiseThen
in order to avoid this hazard. Test expectations are fixed to remove
expecting extraneous events which occurred on Promises that are
now not given unnecessarily complex resolution paths before being
thrown away.
