Remove low-level Process API in favor of high-level Server API
Rename "process" to "actor" everywhere
Consolidate everything under Drama and Drama.Internal modules
Remove Drama.Loop module
Rename run{,_} to runActor{,_}
Rename here to getSelf
Make tryReceive indicate whether a message was received by returning a Bool
Add Actor_ convenience type synonym
Allow using call with response type of ()

So that you can send synchronous/blocking messages that don't have a meaningful response. Useful if you need to wait until a message is handled before proceeding.
Send MVar instead of Unagi.Chan in Envelope
Loosened dependency version bounds

Added cast, call, and handle functions, and Envelope message wrapper type, which enforce you get the response you expect from certain messages
Added convenient Server type alias for processes using Envelopes
Added examples/use.hs to experiment with "use pattern"
Moved things to separate modules (everything still re-exported from top-level Drama module)
Added NoMsg, to be used instead of Void

Added more efficient spawn_ and run_ functions for spawning actors that don't receive messages
Re-exported common functions and types, such as MonadIO and forever, via Drama.Reexports module

Added Message constraint to functions dealing with an actor's Address and Mailbox (send, receive, spawn, etc.)
