Stage Ressource Granularity

Actually, the ThreadPool is the minimum ressource granularity for a 
stage; each stage have a ThreadPool associate to it.  I think that this 
can be too coarse-grained.

By exemple, if two stages need no more than one thread, there is no 
value in allocating a separate thread pool to each stage.  The handler 
developer will need to combine these two stages into a single stage to 
improve performance.  This is a burden for the users of Sandstorm.

Instead, I think that Sandstorm can "combine" stages dynamically!  The 
idea is that many stages could share one ThreadPool.
