Use conditional type inference for promise resolution

This improves the quality of the type resolution for promise constructor
methods, as using conditional type inference is distributive, whereas
the inference provided by arguments is not.

Alternatively, the arguments based inference could be improved, but that
would be a completely different kind of change.
