Research direction

No file or test is named. First locate the deprecated bring-your-own-promise integration and its references, then run the relevant existing test suite; done means the deprecated promise library and its usage are removed without breaking the PostgreSQL client.

Description

remove bring your own promise

It's 2026 now...probably high time we just use the built in promise library. It's already been deprecated, so its just the removal left.
