Support creating, getting and putting to native Go channels about grumpy HOT 7 OPEN

Thanks for the interest in the project! The normal Python threading libraries are based on goroutines. So for example, this will implicitly start a goroutine:

import threading
def target():
  print 'from a goroutine!'
t = threading.Thread(target=target)
t.start()
t.join()

Channels will be exposed implicitly as Queue objects. They will also be directly usable as native Go objects, but that work has not yet been done. Reopening this to capture that work.

@toadzhou I think that's a different issue. Can you file a different issue? It would be useful to see the output of go version.

I would like to take a stab at implementing Queues in terms of channels if no one is working on it yet.

I don't think implementing Queue based on channal is a good idea. Even in Go, we often reimplement a queue without channals rather than using channals.

How do you think about refactoring threading.Event using channal?
