Postponing in a promise that is being serialized to the client from the server should be possible however prior to this change Flight treated this case like an error rather than a postpone. This fix adds support for postponing in this position and adds a test asserting you can successfully prerender the root if you unwrap this promise inside a suspense boundary.
