Andrew Kelley a9667b5a85 organize std lib concurrency primitives and add RwLock
* move concurrency primitives that always operate on kernel threads to
   the std.Thread namespace
 * remove std.SpinLock. Nobody should use this in a non-freestanding
   environment; the other primitives are always preferable. In
   freestanding, it will be necessary to put custom spin logic in there,
   so there are no use cases for a std lib version.
 * move some std lib files to the top level fields convention
 * add std.Thread.spinLoopHint
 * add std.Thread.Condition
 * add std.Thread.Semaphore
 * new implementation of std.Thread.Mutex for Windows and non-pthreads Linux
 * add std.Thread.RwLock

The ultimate goal of the Zig project is to serve users. As a first-order effect, this means users of the compiler, helping programmers to write better software. Even more important, however, are the end-users.

Zig is intended to be used to help end-users accomplish their goals. Zig should be used to empower end-users, never to exploit them financially, or to limit their freedom to interact with hardware or software in any way.

However, such problems are best solved with social norms, not with software licenses. Any attempt to complicate the software license of Zig would risk compromising the value Zig provides.

Therefore, Zig is available under the MIT (Expat) License, and comes with a humble request: use it to make software better serve the needs of end-users.

This project redistributes code from other projects, some of which have other licenses besides MIT. Such licenses are generally similar to the MIT license for practical purposes. See the subdirectories and files inside lib/ for more details.
