Description
In may scenarios things are simplified with Promises. It'd be handy to have some built into Dust e.g. (for illustration)
```javascript
Object.assign(dust, {
asyncRenderSource(str='', view={}) {
return new Promise((res, rej) => {
const template = dust.loadSource(dust.compile(str, ''))
try {
dust.render(template, view, (err, out) => err ? rej(err) : res(out))
} catch(e) { rej(e) } // see #107
})
}
})
```
Noting #107 re. syntax errors.
Cheers . :beers:

Research direction
The issue names no files or tests; start by reading Dust's compile, loadSource, and render entry points, then review the syntax-error context in #107. Done means the agreed Promise-based Dust functions are defined and covered by tests for successful rendering and error handling, though the issue does not specify the full API scope.
