The upcoming `AsyncContext` specification adds a default value and name
to async storage variables. This adds the same to `AsyncLocalStorage`
to promote closer alignment with the pending spec.
```js
const als = new AsyncLocalStorage({
  name: 'foo',
  defaultValue: 123,
});
console.log(als.name);  // 'foo'
console.log(als.getStore());  // 123
```
