Simplified actor model

This crate provides a simplified actor model implementation. It is based on the actor model as described by Carl Hewitt in 1973.

The actor model is a model of concurrent computation that treats "actors" as the universal primitives of concurrent computation. In response to a message that it receives, an actor can:

• make local decisions
• update its private state
• create more actors
• send more messages
• determine how to respond to the next message received

Actors may modify their own private state, but can only affect each other indirectly through messaging (no actor can access the state of another actor directly).
