Need to patch the standard library

Hey,

Thanks for the polyfill!

util.promisify doesn’t only add the custom promisify argument - it also patches the standard library methods with a custom promisification property. This is useful for things like fs.exists.

A better solution would be to use a global symbol, like I’m proposing in https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/31647.

Just a lack of developer time to get it done. 0.10 & 0.12 EOLed in quick succession.
