Release v1.0.1

New feature:
Optional throttling between operations.

Rationale:
ns-3 Write() operations were being occasionally missed by the external process; as a result, any subsequent invocation of Read() would return an empty string with lines yet to parse from the named pipe. Adding a delay between the end of a previous Read() and a subsequent Write() fixes the issue.

In a generalization effort, user-defined delays may be introduced between Read -> Write transitions as well as Write -> Read ones; hereby release thus contains these changes.
