[Tarantool-patches] [PATCH v9 0/4] popen: add ability to run external process

[Cyrill Gorcunov]

In this series we provide a way to execute external binaries
from inside of Lua scripts, control children process and
communicate with their stdin/out/err streams.

In v9 I reworked the API using coio as main nonblocking
i/o engine and use diag_set where appropriate (v6,7,8 are
skipped for testing reasons).

Note that the patches:

- [PATCH v9 3/4] popen/lua: add popen module
- [PATCH v9 4/4] popen/test: add base test cases

are *NOT* for merging, we're still discussing API for lua
but I think we can safely merge the backend engine (ie first
two patches) without breaking anything and concentrate then
on Lua API and backend extensions.
