Removed trans_comm.rs from the compiler. Updating aio/sio to work with the new chan and port system, started on a networking module for the standard library.

Added a library version of spawn. Before long, we can remove the old version.

Adding a function to stdlib to set the min stack size, for programs
...
that absolutely will not succeed with a large default stack. This
should be removed once we have stack grown working.
Also updated word-count to succeed under the new test framework.

Remove task::worker
...
It was too unsafe to live. It already apeared to be causing problems with
eholk's incoming task changes, so I'm killing it now before it can spread.

Run test process from a dedicated task
...
This avoids a race wherein test tasks could run processes that stole the
environment of other tasks's processes.

Add task::worker. Spawns a task and returns a channel to it
...
It takes a lot of boilerplate to create a task and establish a way to talk to
it. This function simplifies that, allowing you to write something like
'worker(f).chan <| start'. Implementation is very unsafe and only works for a
few types of channels, but something like this is very useful.

More work on word-count.
...
Updated the MapReduce protocol so that it's correct more often. It's
still not perfect, but the bugs repro less often now.
Also found a race condition in channel sending. The problem is that
send and receive both need to refer to the _unread field in
circular_buffer. For now I just grabbed the port lock to send. We can
probably get around this by using atomics instead.

Add an unsupervise builtin and function to std::task
...
Calling task::unsupervise de-parents the current task, with the result
that failures do not propogate up the task tree.

This is the mega-ucontext commit. It replaces the task switching mechanism with a new one inspired by ucontext. It works under Linux, OS X and Windows, and is Valgrind clean on Linux and OS X (provided the runtime is built with gcc).
...
This commit also moves yield and join to the standard library, as requested in #42 . Join is currently a no-op though.
