Bayonne 0.6.4, and pnet runtime support

0.6.3 was released this morning with Java support, and I've already 
started work on the next release of Bayonne2, 0.6.4.  This release will 
include initial support for launching C# coded/il binary telephony 
applications under Bayonne2 using the Portable.NET runtime.

The initial goal for Bayonne pnet is minimally to be able to launch an 
ilrun session and C# apps which will use the Bayonne.Libexec class. 
This much I think can probably be completed over the weekend, and if so 
0.6.4 will be released maybe by Monday.  This seems achievable 
especially given that pnet is far less miserable to use than Java in 
this particular respect.

Some longer term goals for pnet do include embedding the pnet vm, maybe 
as early as 0.7.0.  I recall ilrun is essentially a wrapper for the vm 
library, and certainly the Bayonne libexec session manager is a wrapper 
for calling executables.  There is no reason it cannot also do so 
launching an embedded vm, with the startup performance gain of then 
having the vm already resident.

Another thing that might be nice to see is if bayonne specific meta data 
could be embedded and extracted.  Bayonne could use such meta data for 
assigning which proxy servers to register uri's for pnet apps, for 
example.  This can also be done externally with a /etc/bayonne/pnet.apps 
file (from 0.6.1 last week) which generates a wrapper from a seperate 
config file.
