PR, stars, opinions, issues are more than welcome! Thanks!

Added threadless actors:

• Functional style actors* - with state/without state | with reply/without reply | synchronous/asynchronous processing logic.
  
  

• Object style actors* - developer inherits his own class from the ActorPolicy class and delegates the work to the ScheduleFunction method that returns Task<T>.
  
  

• Simple examples. (extracted from tests).

• Map/Reduce actors - counting word frequency in Shakespeare.

Planned features:

1. Dynamic proxy for simplified creation of actors from classes with an interface that contains only void returning or/and Task<T> returning methods. AFAIK C++ does not have support for the "dynamic" proxy. "Classic" smart proxy may be used only for pre-processing and post-processing of the method call in the "real" subject.

2. Asynchronous logic (support for co_await/co_return) in "OOP style" actors.

3. The context for messages (a reference to a sender, a reply address, etc.)

4. FSM actors.

5. "Supervisors".

6. More samples.
