Overwrite non-subclassable promises about es6-promise

[stefanpenner]

👍

[stefanpenner]

so currently precisely 0 browser support this. Would we like to still check and override?

Happy to clobber all until we get an implementation that supports subclassing, then we can look at how best to feature test it.

• subclass-ability is now a criteria for polyfil
• update readme accordingly

Something like the following (although it adds many bytes).

var isNative = Object.prototype.toString.call(Promise.resolve())  === '[object Promise]';

function testSubclassing() {
  function SubClass() {
    Promise.call(this);
  }

  SubClass.prototype= Object.create(Promise.prototype)

  var seemsToSubClass;
  try {
    new SubClass(function() { });
    seemsToSubClass  = true;
  } catch(e) {
    seemsToSubClass = false
  }

  return seemsToSubClass;
}



if (isNative) {
  canSubclass = testSubClassing();
}

master should do this now, but If you have time to audit it that would be awesome.!
