test updating instances in promiseSpace updates agoricNames

[Chris-Hibbert]

refs: #9970

Description

While preparing a coreEval for the vaults&Auctions release, I found it necessary to update both instance.produce.auctioneer and agoricNamesAdmin.lookupAdmin('instance').

This test shows that updating the former causes the latter to update.

Testing Considerations

[Chris-Hibbert]

For the purposes of conversation, this test shows that

 await space.instance.produce.auctioneer.reset();
  await space.instance.produce.auctioneer.resolve(auctionInstance2);

does indeed update agoricNames.

  const instanceLookup = await agoricNames.lookup('instance');
  t.is(await instanceLookup.lookup('auctioneer'), auctionInstance2);

This shows that the short version works in at least some cases.

It doesn't hurt to land this as-is, but should we look harder for problems first?

[dckc]

I suggest moving the error to where auctionInstance1 is declared:

Suggested change

	const auctionInstance1 = makeHandle('instance1');
	const instanceLookup = await agoricNames.lookup('instance');
	// @ts-expect-error storing fake instance
	space.instance.produce.auctioneer.resolve(auctionInstance1);
	// @ts-expect-error expecting instance
	t.is(await space.instance.consume.auctioneer, auctionInstance1);
	/** @type { Instance } */
	// @ts-expect-error mock
	const auctionInstance1 = makeHandle('instance1');
	const instanceLookup = await agoricNames.lookup('instance');
	space.instance.produce.auctioneer.resolve(auctionInstance1);
	t.is(await space.instance.consume.auctioneer, auctionInstance1);

I'd like to look harder, but I don't know what to look for. My current (very tentative) hypothesis is that the promises are taking a while to resolve in the upgrade coreEval.

We can look there, I think, by controlling which promises resolve when in a test. We might have to introduce a few more moving parts. hm.
