Description

I can see from previous discussions in#8674 that there was a decision not to ban returningPromise<any> in returns from non-async promises.

It would be quite nice to allow banning this type since there are situations, such as below, where code can be written with chained promises whereanys can be allowed into code without any errors.

declarefunctionhello(getName:()=>Promise<string>):Promise<void>;// Avoids error currentlyawaithello(()=>fetch("/name/get").then((i)=>i.json()));// Gives errorawaithello(async()=>fetch("/name/get").then((i)=>i.json()));// Gives errorawaithello(async()=>{constresponse=awaitfetch("/name/get");returnawaitresponse.json();});

Fail

declarefunctionhello(getName:()=>Promise<string>):Promise<void>;awaithello(()=>fetch("/name/get").then((i)=>i.json()));

Pass

declarefunctionhello(getName:()=>Promise<string>):Promise<void>;awaithello(()=>fetch("/name/get").then((i)=>i.json()asPromise<string>));
