This will convert all & into *. Due to the syntax
ambiguity (which is why we are making this change),
even address-of & will turn into *, so you'll have
to manually fix thes instances. You will be guaranteed
to get compile errors for them - expected 'type', found 'foo'
also reduce the aggressiveness of std.atomic.stack
and std.atomic.queue fuzz testing. appveyor has 1 core
and 10,000 iterations is too much for 6 threads to
thrash over
* remove std.os.spawnThreadAllocator - windows does not support
an explicit stack, so using an allocator for a thread stack
space does not work.
* std.os.spawnThread - instead of accepting a stack argument, the
implementation will directly allocate using OS-specific APIs.
