Enable Asynchronous cljs.js/*eval-fn*

Description

In bootstrapped ClojureScript cljs.js/eval-fn receives javascript source and evaluates it, returning a result. In some contexts it is necessary to evaluate the js asynchronously, can we add this functionality?

This just doesn't seem that useful.

Interesting. I don't think this is a common use case, most JS engines provide synchronous eval. Not interested in any breaking changes but would be happy to take a patch that gives you the behavior you want via an option flag, :async-eval.

My usecase is an asynchronous eval function

There must be other people who have situations like this.

This ticket needs more rationale. Can you elaborate on the usecase?
