Previously, if the future's result was an iterable (except a
string), the function was applied to each item in the iterable.
This behavior is unpredictable and makes regular use cases like
extracting a single field from a dict difficult, thus the
behavior has been simplified. Now, the entire result value is
passed to the function.

reduce(func[, initial])
Return a new future with the result of reducing the future's iterable
into a single value.
The function of two arguments is applied cumulatively to the items of
the iterable, from left to right. The result of the first function call
is used as the first argument to the second function call, and so on,
until the end of the iterable. If the future's value isn't an iterable,
a :exc:`TypeError` is raised.
:meth:`reduce` accepts an optional second argument, which will be used
as an initial value in the first function call. If the iterable is
empty, the initial value is returned.
Example::
>>> import pykka
