Memory leak of sorts

Hello, infinitely recursing setTimeout calls will increase the memory usage forever.

Reproduction code: (node 8.9.1)

require('trace');
const memwatch = require('memwatch-ng');

memwatch.on('leak', info => {
    console.log('Memory leak detected.');
    console.log(info);
});

function loop (func) {
    const execute = () => {
        func().then(() => {
            setTimeout(execute, 0);
        });
    };
    execute();
}

console.log(`Stack trace limit is: ${Error.stackTraceLimit}`);

loop(async () => {
    await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 0));
});

I don’t suppose there’s a way for trace to limit its memory usage? I understand that I’m essentially creating an infinitely long stack trace, but this code does work without trace enabled.

@foray1010 I’ve fixed that memory leak in PR #40

Still leaking, because this PR wasn’t merged. This project seems to be dead.
