Support for asynchronous operations

See original GitHub issue

Hey there, loving the library thus far.

I was wondering if pipe and flow support async functions without needing to wrap them in an IIFE. Purify supports this via their MaybeAsync and EitherAsync wrappers, and I believe Ramda also supports this via the composeWith and pipeWith functions.

I’m currently evaluating replacing Ramda with either this library or Purify, but to reduce the amount of churn, being able to support async ops in a composition is ideal.

@jsec @WidgetKing @alexn-s hey there! 👋 this is definitely on my roadmap, sneak peek: I’m currently working on three following modules:

Async (equivalent to fp-ts Task)
AsyncResult (TaskEither)
AsyncData

all of them will be published in one of the subsequent releases (it takes a vast amount of time to adjust ReScript to TS in this particular case tho)

Thanks for the update @mobily! And thank you for all the time and effort you put into this library. Take your time. We know good things come to those who wait.
