There was a signature mismatch between the public

Thanks to Martin especially for knocking some sense into me
about this. The type signature *was* incompatible, but
changing to <Void> rather the <Object> made this updated
version less useful (it could only return indication, not
result). So it is now updated with a signature-correct
version of anyOf with its original semantics.

Additionally, while being slightly disruptive anyway:
This class was lacking a little convenience method found in
other Future-based frameworks that surely will be requested.
So now added:

    /**
     * Returns a new CompletableFuture that is already completed with
     * the given value.
     *
     * @param value the value
     * @return the completed CompletableFuture
     */
    public static <U> CompletableFuture<U> completedFuture(U value)
