/**
 *  Class COROUNTINE.
 *  Implements a coroutine. Wikipedia has a good explanation:
 *
 *  "Coroutines are computer program components that generalize subroutines to
 *  allow multiple entry points for suspending and resuming execution at certain locations.
 *  Coroutines are well-suited for implementing more familiar program components such as cooperative
 *  tasks, exceptions, event loop, iterators, infinite lists and pipes."
 *
 *  In other words, a coroutine can be considered a lightweight thread - which can be
 *  preempted only when it deliberately yields the control to the caller. This way,
 *  we avoid concurrency problems such as locking / race conditions.
 *
 *  Uses libcontext library to do the actual context switching.
 *
 *  This particular version takes a DELEGATE as an entry point, so it can invoke
 *  methods within a given object as separate coroutines.
 *
 *  See coroutine_example.cpp for sample code.
