/**
 * An object representing a delayed computation.
 *
 * A [Future] is used to represent a potential value, or error,
 * that will be available at some time in the future.
 * Receivers of a [Future] can register callbacks
 * that handle the value or error once it is available.
 * For example:
 *
 *     Future<int> future = getFuture();
 *     future.then((value) => handleValue(value))
 *           .catchError((error) => handleError(error));
 *
 * A [Future] can complete in two ways:
 * with a value ("the future succeeds")
 * or with an error ("the future fails").
 * Users can install callbacks for each case.
 * The result of registering a pair of callbacks is a new Future (the
 * "successor") which in turn is completed with the result of invoking the
 * corresponding callback.
 * The successor is completed with an error if the invoked callback throws.
 * For example:
 *
 *     Future<int> successor = future.then((int value) {
 *         // Invoked when the future is completed with a value.
 *         return 42;  // The successor is completed with the value 42.
 *       },
 *       onError: (e) {
 *         // Invoked when the future is completed with an error.
 *         if (canHandle(e)) {
 *           return 499;  // The successor is completed with the value 499.
 *         } else {
 *           throw e;  // The successor is completed with the error e.
 *         }
 *       });
 *
 * If a future does not have a successor when it completes with an error,
 * it forwards the error message to the global error-handler.
 * This behavior makes sure that no error is silently dropped.
 * However, it also means that error handlers should be installed early,
 * so that they are present as soon as a future is completed with an error.
 * The following example demonstrates this potential bug:
 *
 *     var future = getFuture();
 *     new Timer(new Duration(milliseconds: 5), () {
 *       // The error-handler is not attached until 5 ms after the future has
 *       // been received. If the future fails before that, the error is
 *       // forwarded to the global error-handler, even though there is code
 *       // (just below) to eventually handle the error.
 *       future.then((value) { useValue(value); },
 *                   onError: (e) { handleError(e); });
 *     });
 *
 * When registering callbacks, it's often more readable to register the two
 * callbacks separately, by first using [then] with one argument
 * (the value handler) and using a second [catchError] for handling errors.
 * Each of these will forward the result that they don't handle
 * to their successors, and together they handle both value and error result.
 * It also has the additional benefit of the [catchError] handling errors in the
 * [then] value callback too.
 * Using sequential handlers instead of parallel ones often leads to code that
 * is easier to reason about.
 * It also makes asynchronous code very similar to synchronous code:
 *
 *     // Synchronous code.
 *     try {
 *       int value = foo();
 *       return bar(value);
 *     } catch (e) {
 *       return 499;
 *     }
 *
 * Equivalent asynchronous code, based on futures:
 *
 *     Future<int> future = new Future(foo);  // Result of foo() as a future.
 *     future.then((int value) => bar(value))
 *           .catchError((e) => 499);
 *
 * Similar to the synchronous code, the error handler (registered with
 * [catchError]) is handling any errors thrown by either `foo` or `bar`.
 * If the error-handler had been registered as the `onError` parameter of
 * the `then` call, it would not catch errors from the `bar` call.
 *
 * Futures can have more than one callback-pair registered. Each successor is
 * treated independently and is handled as if it was the only successor.
 *
 * A future may also fail to ever complete. In that case, no callbacks are
 * called.

   * Calling [complete] or `completeError` must not be done more than once.
   *
   * Completing a future with an error indicates that an exception was thrown
   * while trying to produce a value.
   *
   * The argument [error] must not be `null`.
   *
   * If `error` is a `Future`, the future itself is used as the error value.
   * If you want to complete with the result of the future, you can use:
   *
   *     thisCompleter.complete(theFuture)
   *
   * or if you only want to handle an error from the future:
   *
   *     theFuture.catchError(thisCompleter.completeError);
   *
