capabilities as well as support for imperative programming. It to be used
for short lived scripts as well as for building real programs. It can also
be extended with native code (C modules) for better performance and interfacing with
existing software. Janet takes ideas from Lua, Scheme, Racket, Clojure, Smalltalk, Erlang, and

a whole bunch of other dynamic languages.

To create a fiber, user the `fiber/new` function. The fiber constructor take one or two arguments.
the first, necessary argument is the function that the fiber will execute. This function must accept
an arity of one. The next optional argument is a collection of flags checking what kinds of
an arity of zero. The next optional argument is a collection of flags checking what kinds of
signals to trap and return via `resume`. This is useful so
the programmer does not need to handle all different kinds of signals from a fiber. Any untrapped signals
are simply propagated to the next fiber.
