Defer generic awaited type

[jablko]

asyncfunctionf<T>(x: T){returnx;}constexpected: Promise<number>=f(undefinedasPromise<number>);

Before

!!! error TS2322: Type 'Promise<Promise<number>>' is not assignable to type 'Promise<number>'. !!! error TS2322: Type 'Promise<number>' is not assignable to type 'number'. 

After

getAwaitedType() returns the awaited type if it's known, or Awaited<T> if it's generic.

Fixes#27711

This proposal excludes non-A+ promises, which has the benefit of not requiring a recursive solution or a new kind of type, since an A+ promise can't resolve to another promise.
