   We don’t have to use node’s actual primordials facility here - but it’d be easy to migrate to it later if we module-level-cached builtins that were call-bound.

   Meaning:

   const callBound = require('call-bind/callBound');
   const slice = callBound('Array.prototype.slice');
   
   /* and later */
   slice(arr)

   First draft of primordials done in #37, with another PR coming to generalise the support in a reusable way for other polyfill proof of concept projects for easy adoption in node: #37 (comment)

   Closing this as we have added and are using primordials.js to allow writing code that will slot into the node environment, which is the main goal.

   If we want a robust package for use stand-alone, more work to do.
