    netchan: do not block sends; implement flow control. · 6fb1bf26
    Roger Peppe authored
    When data is received for a channel, but that channel
    is not ready to receive it, the central run() loop
    is currently blocked, but this can lead to deadlock
    and interference between independent channels.
    This CL adds an explicit buffer size to netchan
    channels (an API change) - the sender will not
    send values until the buffer is non empty.
    
    The protocol changes to send ids rather than channel names
    because acks can still be sent after a channel is hung up,
    we we need an identifier that can be ignored.
