This modifies the specification:

All calls to functions that are marked as Suspending will be processed using Promise.resolve.

Note that, if the callee throws, then that throw is NOT converted to a Promise. In part, this is because we cannot reliably invoke Promise.reject in all cases (e.g., stack overflow errors).

1. Otherwise, if [=list/size=] of |ret| is 1 and [$IsPromise$](|ret|.\[[Value]][0]):
1. Let |promise| be |ret|.\[[Value]][0].
1. Otherwise,
1. Let |promise| be [=?=] [$PromiseResolve$]({{%Promise%}},|ret|.\[[Value]]).

The ? macro here is incorrect because it would propagate a throw completion to the caller, which in this case is Wasm. You should use [$Completion$](PromiseResolve(...)) and do the manual checking, coercion of the exception, and [=WebAssembly/Throw=] like done elsewhere in this algorithm.
