This allows a service to postpone communication with other services
until it can be sure that it's registered with central dispatch. Service
registration on the main thread always happens immediately, but that
version of `setService` still returns a Promise for consistency.
The tests run using TinyWorker, which emulates web workers on Node.
There are quite a few quirks in that situation due to the differences
between Node and Webpack as well as the differences between TinyWorker
and real Web Workers.
The tests also exposed a few bugs in the dispatch system, which have now
been fixed. Most notably, if a method called through the dispatch system
throws an exception that exception will now be passed back to the
caller. Previously the exception would escape the dispatch system and
the caller would never hear any response at all.
This message dispatch system allows a "service" to register itself under
a particular name, and then anyone can call any method on that service
from any context (the main "window" thread or any worker). Return values
are passed back through promise resolution.
