feat: futures on real OS threads (ev/thread)
Implement clojure.core futures backed by Janet's ev/thread for genuine parallelism (CPU-bound work can use a second core, unlike cooperative go blocks): - future / future-call, deref + (deref f timeout-ms timeout-val), future?, future-done?, future-cancel, future-cancelled?; realized? on futures. - A worker OS thread computes and marshals back a [:ok v]/[:error e] result over a thread-chan; a parent-side collector fiber caches it and closes a broadcast latch so any number of deref-ers unpark. - Snapshot semantics: separate heaps mean the body + captured state are copied to the worker and only the result is copied back (mutating a captured atom does not propagate). Documented in README. - future-cancel can't interrupt a Janet OS thread, so it marks the future cancelled/done (deref throws, predicates flip) while the worker runs out. clojure-test-suite baseline 3915 -> 3913: implementing future unskips realized_qmark.cljc's (when-var-exists future ...) block, which depends on JVM Thread/sleep + real thread interruption jolt can't provide; deref then re-raises the unresolved-Thread/sleep error. Documented at the baseline. Spec: test/spec/futures-spec.janet (18 cases).

# Specification: clojure.core futures on Janet OS threads (ev/thread).
|
||||
#
|
||||
# A `future` runs its body on a *real* OS thread (ev/thread), so it can use a
|
||||
# second core for CPU-bound work — unlike the cooperatively-scheduled go blocks.
|
||||
# Because Janet threads have separate heaps, the body and its captured state are
|
||||
# MARSHALLED (copied) to the worker thread and the result is marshalled back: a
|
||||
# future sees a snapshot of captured state and communicates only via its return
|
||||
# value (mutations to captured atoms do NOT propagate back). `deref`/`@` blocks
|
||||
# (parks) until the worker finishes; the result is cached for later derefs.
