  Returns object containing following properties:
  - `promise` Eventual value representation implementing CommonJS [Promises/A]
    (http://wiki.commonjs.org/wiki/Promises/A) API.
  - `resolve` Single shot function that resolves returned `promise` with a given
    `value` argument.
  - `reject` Single shot function that rejects returned `promise` with a given
    `reason` argument.

  Given `prototype` argument is used as a prototype of the returned `promise`
  allowing one to implement additional API. If prototype is not passed then
  it falls back to `Object.prototype`.

  ## Examples

  // Simple usage.

      resolve = resolve ? attempt(resolve) : resolution
      reject = reject ? attempt(reject) : rejection

      // Create a listeners for a enclosed promise resolution / rejection that
      // delegate to an actual callbacks and resolve / reject returned promise.
      function resolved(value) { deferred.resolve(resolve(value)) }
      function rejected(reason) { deferred.resolve(reject(reason)) }

      // If promise is pending register listeners. Otherwise forward them to
      // resulting resolution.
      if (pending) pending.push([ resolved, rejected ])
