Inimerse 0.4.1 Release Notes

Inimerse 0.4.1 is a patch release for the 0.4 portable runtime line.

Fixes

• Fixed hosted CI false failures in the range metadata regression by running
  the core language test from an isolated CMake sandbox.
• Removed the unsafe CTest failure regex that matched diagnostic string-table
  output instead of executed program output.
• Made CI CMake builds start from a clean build directory.
• Fixed Windows CI setup so the legacy build.ps1 path has a MinGW toolchain
  available on GitHub hosted runners.
• Made build.ps1 use CMake as the single canonical Windows source list,
  preventing linker failures when new runtime modules are added.
• Made the closure concurrency probe use the project's portable thread layer,
  so the full probe set builds with MinGW as well as POSIX toolchains.
• Updated GitHub's checkout and Node setup actions to their Node 24 releases.
• Fixed Windows collection conversion/join lifetime bugs exposed by the shared
  cross-platform CTest suite.
• Fixed an intermittent VM deadlock when thread result/await code created
  Result dictionaries while worker threads were still active.
• Made --no-mods a working runtime flag so core tests can opt out of ambient
  project modules explicitly.
• Brought Windows runtime collection metadata, process probing, and thread
  message timing behavior in line with the shared CTest suite.
• Isolated core metadata and portable API tests with --no-mods, and made
  portable API failures report precise stage markers without tripping CTest on
  diagnostic string-table output.
• Replaced the function-message thread lifetime test's fixed startup sleep with
  an explicit ready signal and queue handshake before sending the function
  value, and verifies the result through thread_result instead of thread-local
  gui_say output.
• Split --no-mods so core C modules still register while world, VDP,
  packaging, and disk-loaded modules stay out of core runtime tests.
• Made Windows atomic_get/atomic_set use interlocked operations for
  cross-thread visibility.
• Fixed Windows split handling for an empty separator so it matches the
  portable runtime's whitespace split behavior.
• Made copied function values clone their closure payload so queued
  cross-thread function messages do not depend on sender lifetime.
• Made function-value calls use the closure object's function index as the
  canonical target.
• Marked OS thread message queues as GC roots so queued function values remain
  callable until the receiver consumes them.
• Kept range metadata checks focused on the range(value) runtime behavior,
  with regex coverage handled by the portable API test.
• Declared the Python cryptography dependency required by signed Inim packages.
• Made build.ps1 create the local deployment directory before copying the
  Windows executable.
