[Suggestion] return the underlying fetch Promise in trackEvent/trackView

[valsinats42]

Currently, the trackEvent and trackView functions fire off the collect fetch request, but there's no way for the client to track its progress. As a suggestion, the library could return the underlying fetch Promise, so it could be await-ed by the client code.

I'd find this useful, for example, if I want to track a click on an a tag with a href attribute. In the current situation, if I add a custom @click handler and call { umTrackEvent(..); window.location.href = ...}, I can't think of a clean way to guarantee that the event has been sent before the browser loads the new page and aborts the tracking request (of course, one can use a setTimeout, but that's not pretty).

That is a great idea and use case, @valsinats42. I'll work on that. Thank you!
