Tuna 0.4.0 Now with Preemptive (lanes) functionality as well as Cooperative from C or Lua

[curt <curt@...>]

Was reading over the documentation on lanes and realized the 
message-passing implementation I had would work for that too. So I added 
an API (well two Apis, one on the C side and one on the Lua side that 
can both do the same thing) to create separate threads of execution and 
message between them. This includes spawning/suspending/resuming remote 
tasks.

Tuna still allows full cooperative multi-tasking inside each OS thread, 
with pooled/shared stacks intended to run tens of thousands of 
individual tasks quickly and efficiently. Allowing intuitive 
yield/resume mechanics from C or Lua transparently, and without the use 
of coroutines.

For lots more info and the source: http://northarc.com/tuna Feel free to 
msg me with any questions/concerns/feedback/mocking laughter.
