Given a key and a set of arguments, call them when given a context. Primarily useful in composition.
Use a closure to call a stored key with stored arguments.
```js
const call = (key, ...args) => context => context[key](...args);
```
```js
Promise.resolve([1, 2, 3])
.then(call('map', x => 2 * x))
.then(console.log); // [ 2, 4, 6 ]
const map = call.bind(null, 'map');
Promise.resolve([1, 2, 3])
.then(map(x => 2 * x))
.then(console.log); // [ 2, 4, 6 ]
```
