The phase-1 split filled Idle::next_deadline from the timers lock after the
shared lock was released, which turned the stale-PID branch (formerly a 100µs
poll) into a potential sleep-until-timer-deadline while runnable actors sat in
the queue — a hard stall on exact(1). Stale pops are now PopResult::Retry and
loop without sleeping.
test(poison): strengthen regression coverage. The stop-storm test never fired
the sentinel under a lock (its actors only allocate at lock-free points). Add
self_stop_during_spawn_does_not_poison_shared_mutex: a stop-flagged actor whose
next allocation is the Box::new(closure) inside spawn's with_shared. Validated
both ways: passes with the gate, SIGABRTs (unwind-in-allocator) with the gate
removed. Also alloc_interval(1) so every allocation is an observation point.
- next_monitor_id -> AtomicU64 on RuntimeInner
- timers -> own Mutex<Timers>; io -> own Mutex<Option<IoThread>> (lock order: io-before-shared)
- pending_closures Vec folded into Slot::pending_closure
- termination check reads io liveness before shared; ordering argument documented
- poison fix: check_cancelled() no longer fires while preemption is disabled,
so a cancellation unwind can never poison a runtime/channel mutex
- regression test: tests/poison_stop.rs
- ROADMAP_v0.5.md added
