Async code in constructor

[shishkin]

Hi! How can I execute async code in construct's constructor? Javascript/Typescript constructors disallow await. I would like to have an async build step before passing results onto sub-constructs.

Unfortunately we do not generally support this kind of use case. Please see our guidance here: aws/aws-cdk#8273 (comment)

Thanks for the pointer @Chriscbr, even though I totally disagree with that comment's reasoning as a few others did in that thread.
