Should not use IO::Async's spawn_child function since Windows does not support POSIX fork().

I looked at this a little bit today. Besides spawn_child, IO::Async::Handle+IO::Handle is also not usable because Windows does not support FD. I guess we might just use zmq_poll(), and even separate heartbeat into a separate script execution.

Convert heartbeat child to use IO::Async::Routine

This is so that `fork` is not used on systems that do not have POSIX
forks (e.g., MSWin32).

Fixes <#43>.
