New egg: daemon

[siiky]

Hello everyone!

I'd like to share a new egg: daemon.

It's a simple way (I think) to create background processes running any 
Scheme thunk. The interface is supposed to be really high-level and easy 
to use, you don't have to touch any `chicken.process` & friends. 
However, as with all things OS, implementation is tricky, and very easy 
to screw up. As such, I would very much appreciate more eyes on it! :) 
Suggestions, ideas, bug reports, ... any feedback, really, are of course 
just as welcome!

The documentation page has a simple example (also available on the 
repo). For a couple more examples you can check my trmote repo: 
transmission-verify[0] & transmission-update-seed-priority[1].

Hope you enjoy!
