Loader.install should resolve pending imports about loader

[matthewp]

@caridy I think this should be labeled a bug. This problem means loader.install and loader.provide can only be safely used prior to any <module> tags or prior to any module loading having started. I'm not sure what their use-case would be if this were intentional and not a bug.

This same bug existed in the old System.set/System.define form and it made them effectively unusable.

I will look into the details next week.

This may have been fixed along the way as @caridy has been cleaning up the pipeline logic. He's currently working on a refactor of how the pipeline is represented (see PR #91). The semantics should be carefully ensuring there's only ever one promise stored for each stage, and we should only ever cancel an earlier stage's promise after a later stage has already been resolved. So I don't see off the top of my head how this bug would come up. But let's revisit it after the PR lands.

@matthewp this is now fixed (after PR #97).

[matthewp]

You meant "now fixed", right?

[caridy]

jejeje, yes! fixed.
