+A distributed work-alike of the standard `mapreduce`: Take a function `map` (a
+non-modifying transform on the data) and `fold` (2-to-1 reduction of the
+results of `map`), systematically run them on the data described by `val`
179
+distributed on `workers`, and return the final reduced result.

It is assumed that the fold operation is associative, but not commutative (as

in semigroups). If there are no workers, operation returns `nothing` (we don't
