/**
 * Wraps the function in another function that always returns data even when it
 * errors.
 *
 * The object returned has either the property `error` or `value`.
 *
 * @name reflect
 * @static
 * @memberOf async
 * @category Util
 * @param {Function} fn - The function you want to wrap
 * @returns {Function} - A function that always passes null to it's callback as
 * the error. The second argument to the callback will be an `object` with
 * either an `error` or a `value` property.
 * @example
 *
 * async.parallel([
 *     async.reflect(function(callback) {
 *         // do some stuff ...
 *         callback(null, 'one');
 *     }),
 *     async.reflect(function(callback) {
 *         // do some more stuff but error ...
 *         callback('bad stuff happened');
 *     }),
 *     async.reflect(function(callback) {
 *         // do some more stuff ...
 *         callback(null, 'two');
 *     })
 * ],
 * // optional callback
 * function(err, results) {
 *     // values
 *     // results[0].value = 'one'
 *     // results[1].error = 'bad stuff happened'
 *     // results[2].value = 'two'
 * });
