Encapsulates value that must be defined later. Promises can used to pass introduced declarations to templates as arguments when these declarations have not been introduced yet, resolving a chicken-or-egg situation. When objects of type IPromise are passed to a template, the template will automatically receive its resolved Value instead of the IPromise object. The Promise<T> class implements this interface.
