jobqueue: Run Interruptible Code Asynchronously

Takes an R expression and returns a job object with a $stop() method which can be called to terminate the background job. Also provides timeouts and other mechanisms for automatically terminating a background job. The result of the expression is available synchronously via $result or asynchronously with callbacks or through the 'promises' package framework.
