- Timeout escalation: on timeout, send SIGTERM, then optionally escalate to SIGKILL
after timeout_kill seconds if the child is still running.
- Canonicalized timeout options: timeout and timeout_kill are the only supported
keys (removed internal/accidental *_s variants).
- Bounded parallelism and queueing: improved runtime configuration via
$loop->fork_helper(max_children => ...); tests updated accordingly.
- Public API introspection: standardized on running() / queued() / max_children().
- Internal cleanup: tightened watcher/timer cancellation to prevent stalls or
leaked timers when children exit or are detached.
- Documentation: clarified execution model (callbacks run in parent; child runs
exec/callback only) and expanded SYNOPSIS/options coverage.
