CRAN release 0.2.0

• The value of a mirai is now stored at $data to optimally align with the underlying implementation.
• Package now contains C code (requires compilation), using weak references for simpler management of resources.
• Switch to abstract sockets on Linux.

CRAN release 0.1.1

• mirai() added as an alias for eval_mirai(); supports evaluating arbitrary length expressions wrapped in {}.
• A mirai now resolves automatically without requiring call_mirai(). Access the $value directly and an ‘unresolved’ logical NA will be returned if the async operation is yet to complete.
• stop_mirai() added as a function to stop evaluation of an ongoing async operation.
• Auxiliary functions is_nul_byte() and unresolved() re-exported from {nanonext} to test for evaluation errors and resolution of a 'mirai' respectively.
• New daemons() interface to set and manage persistent background processes for receiving 'mirai' requests.
