* Added `Ractor::Port`
* `Ractor::Port#receive` (support multi-threads)
* `Rcator::Port#close`
* `Ractor::Port#closed?`
* Added some methods
* `Ractor#join`
* `Ractor#value`
* `Ractor#monitor`
* `Ractor#unmonitor`
* Removed some methods
* `Ractor#take`
* `Ractor.yield`
* Change the spec
* `Racotr.select`
You can wait for multiple sequences of messages with `Ractor::Port`.
```ruby
ports = 3.times.map{ Ractor::Port.new }
ports.map.with_index do |port, ri|
Ractor.new port,ri do |port, ri|
3.times{|i| port << "r#{ri}-#{i}"}
end
end
p ports.each{|port| pp 3.times.map{port.receive}}
```
In this example, we use 3 ports, and 3 Ractors send messages to them respectively.
We can receive a series of messages from each port.
You can use `Ractor#value` to get the last value of a Ractor's block:
```ruby
result = Ractor.new do
heavy_task()
end.value
```
You can wait for the termination of a Ractor with `Ractor#join` like this:
```ruby
Ractor.new do
some_task()
end.join
```
`#value` and `#join` are similar to `Thread#value` and `Thread#join`.
To implement `#join`, `Ractor#monitor` (and `Ractor#unmonitor`) is introduced.
This commit changes `Ractor.select()` method.
It now only accepts ports or Ractors, and returns when a port receives a message or a Ractor terminates.
We removes `Ractor.yield` and `Ractor#take` because:
* `Ractor::Port` supports most of similar use cases in a simpler manner.
* Removing them significantly simplifies the code.
We also change the internal thread scheduler code (thread_pthread.c):
* During barrier synchronization, we keep the `ractor_sched` lock to avoid deadlocks.
This lock is released by `rb_ractor_sched_barrier_end()`
which is called at the end of operations that require the barrier.
* fix potential deadlock issues by checking interrupts just before setting UBF.

This test fails fairly frequently on MinGW:
1959892425 (step):11:168
1958562718 (step):11:168
and we aren't actively working on stabilizing tests for MinGW.
The tests looks for the .so file, which doesn't exist when the extension
is statically linked. In that situation it passes -I to ruby with
nothing after it which ate the -rio/console argument.
Some tests that use signals frequently fail randomly on FreeBSD 13.
Maybe something around signals has changed in FreeBSD 13.
This change skips them tentatively.
JRuby's PTY.spawn does not produce a process with its own
controlling terminal, which is necessary for testing these raw
escape sequences. This commit marks those tests as pending.
The functionality tested appears to work at a command line, but
due to this PTY bug in JRuby we cannot test it this way.
