Channel:push now returns an id value. Added Channel:hasRead(id), which returns true if the value that the id represents has already been popped, demanded, or cleared from the Channel. Resolves issue #1104 .

The video decoding thread efficiently waits for a video to be created before doing anything, rather than sleeping for 2ms in a loop. Reduces the CPU usage of the video worker thread to ~0% when no videos are loaded.

We don't need a mutex lock in Channel::retain/release... I think.

The Variant class is now meant to be used on the stack instead of allocated on the heap. As a result (and because of related changes), performance of Channels has roughly doubled when pushing and popping most types.

Added Channel:performAtomic(func, ...). Resolves issue #1034 .
...
performAtomic calls the function and passes the Channel as the first argument, plus any additional specified arguments. The called function should do as little work as possible.
To other threads, all methods for that Channel are executed in a single step inside the function. This can prevent a large number of potiential race conditions.
Example:
-- main.lua:
local function set(channel, value)
channel:clear()
channel:push(value)
return "set value"
end
assert(channel:performAtomic(set, 1) == "set value")
-- thread.lua
while true do
assert(channel:peek() == 1)
end
