Description of change
The main change here is just to expose the Runner API and also update the
libsodium-sys
library to thelibsodium-sys-stable
version which is being properly maintained (the older version was achieved months ago). Exposing the Runner API makes it easier for anyone to create their own procedures without having to make a PR to the stronghold repository. This doesn't change the security of the library as anyone is able to create their own stronghold client even without these changes. All this change does, is make it possible for a 3rd party to write their own extension procedures in a way that works with the existing APIs. The security of these procedures is up to the author rather than the IF.Type of change

How the change has been tested
Change is very simple, nothing to really test apart from the original tests in the system. Even without exposing the runner, anyone can build their own stronghold client with the current API.
