this is a great feature. I would love it if the name reflected how similar it is to once, but I can't think of anything

Description
A common use case for event based systems is to pause execution of one task until a specific event is emitted. The
oncemethod has the functionality for getting the next event, but we can easily add a utility that turns that into a promise. Decided to call it "next" though I'm not tied to that name.There is also an optional
timeoutoption that can be passed witch will automatically reject the promise after the timeout has expired if the expected event has not been emitted.
