No way to unsubscribe from `once`

[futpib]

once returns a promise and nothing else, so if you do a once and it never gets emitted it's leaked forever.

Any suggestions on how we could solve this?

One idea is to add a special symbol to the returned promise and add a .offOnce() method to Emittery that checks for the special symbol and unsubscribes.

Maybe extend the returned promise with an unsubscribe or off method?

Yeah, that may be more discoverable.
