The Trunk: Kernel-eem.1183.mcz

commits-2
Eliot Miranda uploaded a new version of Kernel to project The Trunk:
http://source.squeak.org/trunk/Kernel-eem.1183.mcz

==================== Summary ====================

Name: Kernel-eem.1183
Author: eem
Time: 26 July 2018, 8:57:05.046828 pm
UUID: a55317a4-d742-41af-b3a3-b3198281c2d9
Ancestors: Kernel-eem.1182

Fix the broken SemaphoreTest and MutexTest tests (test[Mutex|Semaphore][After|In]CriticalWait) by having Process>>terminate correctly release <criticalSection> marked methods.  This is done by terminate's helper releaseCriticalSection: distinguishing between a context blocked on a blocking primitive (wait, primitiveEnterCriticalSection & primitiveTestAndSetOwnershipOfCriticalSection) and a runnable process that has been unblocked but has not advanced beyond the blocking send, presumably because it has been shut out by currently running higher priority processes.

Add InstructionStream>>selectorJustSentOrSelf (c.f. selectorToSendOrSelf) to support releaseCriticalSection:.
