  if (Math.random() > 0.5) throw boom.serverUnavailable()

API

`boomware(fn)`

Returns a middleware function that catches a thrown error, wraps it in an Boom.badImplementation if it's not already a Boom error, and passes it to the next() function. boomware handles the case whenfn return Promise, and the case when fn does not return a Promise.
