Remaining todos for topic/node-container

[pchiusano]

Somewhat of a brain dump, working todo list for misc stuff that needs to be done on topic/node-container branch. I'll keep this updated.

• Implement a main for NodeWorker that picks implementations of all its dependencies.
  • Create Protocol implementation
• Come up with some sort of way for the container to actually run some Unison code, so we can submit 'distributed' programs to it. Okay if a hack for now, we just want something to get us running.
  • Hack is that container will run an HTTP server which can be used to submit programs to a node in the container. But you don't need to create the node ahead of time, it just springs into existence when messaged. Possible only because we aren't actually doing any crypto yet.
• Implement a main for NodeContainer that picks implementations of all its dependencies.
• Hook parser up with access to all needed builtins to do interesting stuff
• Make sure node worker process shuts down cleanly after period of inactivity
• Figure out why root node of the computation isn't ever shut down
• Fix let rec interpretation
• Fix any bugs that come up when trying to submit programs to the container
• Improve let rec generalization, so can submit something like a full module with polymorphic functions to the container for evaluation

I can't believe this is finally working, even if it's just a V0. So exciting!!!!!!

Closing this issue.
