QueueFactory

Hi,
One of my goal is to support differents kinds of Queue.  To achieve 
that, we must determine who is responsible to create a Queue. 
Presently, FiniteQueue is the only queue implementation that we have and 
it is created by the concrete StageWrapper.

Instead, I suggest that the TM have the Queue creation responsability:

public interface ThreadManagerIF {
   Queue createQueue();
   ...
}

One reason is that the TM is the only one to use 
SourceIF/BlockingSourceIF operations.  Thus, one TM could use SourceIF 
and another BlockingSourceIF.

Another possibility could be to add a method StageWrapperIF.setQueue. 
This new method would be called by TM just after that StageWrapperIF has 
called TM.register.
