/**
 * Create an action thunk that will dispatch actions indicating the current
 * status of the Promise returned by fn.
 *
 * @param {string} id the id to give the dispatched actions. This is given a
 *                    suffix determining whether it is pending, successful or
 *                    a failure.
 * @param {function} fn a function that returns a Promise.
 * @param {function?} pendingFn a function that returns an object to assign
 *                              to the `request` key of the ${id}.pending
 *                              payload.
 * @returns {function} an action thunk - a function that uses its single
 *                     argument as a dispatch function to dispatch the
 *                     following actions:
 *                         `${id}.pending` and either
 *                         `${id}.success` or
 *                         `${id}.failure`.
 *
 *                     The shape of each are:
 *                     { action: '${id}.pending', request }
 *                     { action: '${id}.success', result }
 *                     { action: '${id}.failure', err }
 *
 *                     where `request` is returned by `pendingFn` and
 *                     result is the result of the promise returned by
 *                     `fn`.
