add COMPLETE instruction #135

Closed zippy closed 8 years ago

zippy commented 8 years ago

this instruction is used to terminate a conversation and supply a reduction value for the CONVERSE instruction. (see #131)

[x] from within the CONVERSE scope
[x] external to the CONVERSE scope (i.e. as part of some callback
[x] add THIS_SCOPE instruction to get a converesations ID for use by COMPLETE
[x] add cleanup of request/listen items in conversation

most elements in place as of 342c38236cf99517c5 still missing cleanup of LISTEN/REQUEST in conversation

zippy commented 8 years ago

There's a problem that COMPLETE unwinds the run-tree to the root of the CONVERSE. In the mean-time, there's a question of any wake-up references to points inside that scope that have to be cleaned up. Maybe this really isn't a problem, because if there are wakeup references, shouldn't that tree be waiting/blocked?
