Release v0.1.0

[mormj]

Development on newsched has been ongoing for over a year, so the codebase
has evolved rapidly in that time - thus there are no details for this first
changelist. Just consider this the first drop.

Core Features

• Modular Scheduler Framework
  • interfaces based on a single input queue
  • default scheduler with N blocks/thread
• Custom Buffers
• YAML-driven Block Workflow
• Consolidated Parameter Access Mechanisms
• Simplified Block APIs

Detailed documentation can be found here

With this release of newsched, you can easily create your own blocks, custom
buffers, and even your own scheduler if you are so inclined

Special thanks to Bastian Bloessl and Marcus Müller for leading the effort
to architect the runtime and provide guidance as to the design decisions

Also want to acknowledge the Scheduler Working Group who have consulted and provided
feedback and ideas on a regular basis about design decisions. I apologize
if I have left anyone out here, but another special thanks to: Seth Hitefield,
Jeff Long, David Sorber, Mike Piscopo, Jacob Gilbert, Marc Lichtman, Philip Balister,
Jim Kulp, Wylie Standage, Garrett Vanhoy, John Sallay, and all the people associated with
with the DARPA DSSoC program that shared their research giving valuable insight.

There is much work left to do, so please reach out on chat.gnuradio.org #scheduler
room if you would like to get involved
