Changes for version 6.5 - 2016-06-22

  • swap_sv swapping order was not symmetrical, causing wrong swaps when swap_sv was used multiple times on the same sv in the same thread.
  • swap_sv calls can now be undone by calling it again with the same variables.
  • swap_sv calls will now be undone in async_pool threads.
  • split Coro::Semaphore::up/adjust into separate xs functions for better error reporting, at slight codesize increase.
  • (libcoro) arm assembly support, please test and report.
  • adjust to PL_savestack changes in perl 5.24 (adapted from the debian patch, which unfortunately gets it wrong).
