+fix: prevent unnecessary re-renders when there are no async validators
+
+Fields were re-rendering twice on each keystroke because `isValidating` was being set to `true` then `false` even when there were no async validators to run. This fix checks if there are actual async validators before toggling the `isValidating` state.
+
+Fixes #1130
