Stable Rust emits stack probes inline (subq/movq/jne loop) rather than
calling __rust_probestack, so there's no transparent hook for stack-
frame preemption. Override of __rust_probestack links cleanly but never
runs. Falling back to an explicit check!() that users drop into hot
compute loops.
check!() decrements the same ALLOC_COUNT counter as the heap path, so
both event sources fire timeslice checks at the same rate. Documents
the prep-to-park invariant on maybe_preempt — library code that
registers a wakeup and then parks must keep that window alloc-free and
check-free, or a preemption-driven yield in the middle would lose the
wakeup.
Adds a BinaryHeap of timer entries on SchedulerState. sleep() inserts
an entry and parks; schedule_loop pops due entries each iteration and
unparks them. When the run queue is empty but timers are pending, the
OS thread sleeps until the soonest deadline.
Single-threaded only; thread::sleep is fine because no other thread
can wake us. The IO thread coming next will need a Condvar or pipe
wakeup to break this OS-sleep early.
v0.2 will add stack-frame entries as a second preemption event source.
Both routes share ALLOC_COUNT so the timeslice check rate is the same
whether the actor is alloc-heavy, frame-heavy, or mixed.
Hand-rolled context switching on mmap'd stacks with guard pages,
allocator-driven RDTSC preemption, unbounded MPSC channels, supervision
via per-slot Signal mailboxes, root supervisor as sentinel PID.
Lib + tests + benches clean check/clippy. All 29 tests pass.
