Constructs a `std::experimental::promise` object.

1) Default constructor. Constructs the promise with an empty shared state.
2) Constructs the promise with an empty shared state. The shared state is allocated using `alloc`, which is treated as a type-erased allocator (see below).
3) Move constructor. Constructs the promise with the shared state of `other` using move semantics. After construction, `other` has no shared state.
4) `std::experimental::promise` is not copyable.

### Type-erased allocator

The constructors of `promise` taking an allocator argument `alloc` treats that argument as a type-erased allocator. The memory resource pointer used by `promise` to allocate memory is determined using the allocator argument (if specified) as follows:

Type of `alloc` | value of the memory resource pointer
Non-existent (no allocator specified at time of construction) | The value of std::experimental::pmr::get_default_resource() at time of construction.
std::nullptr_t | The value of std::experimental::pmr::get_default_resource() at time of construction
A pointer type convertible to std::experimental::pmr::memory_resource* | static_cast<std::experimental::pmr::memory_resource*>(alloc)
A specialization of std::experimental::pmr::polymorphic_allocator | alloc.resource()
Any other type meeting the `Allocator` requirements | A pointer to a value of type std::experimental::pmr::resource_adaptor<A>(alloc), where `A` is the type of `alloc`. The pointer remains valid only for the lifetime of the `promise` object.
None of the above | The program is ill-formed.

### Parameters

alloc | - | allocator to use to allocate the shared state
other | - | another `std::experimental::promise` to acquire the state from
