Rainbows! 0.90.1 should support deferrable bodies needed for async apps
on EM.

I stole the async_app.ru and async_tailer.ru examples from Thin and made
them a part of the integration tests (in t/t04??-*.sh).


The app.deferred?(env) isn't supported, yet.  It's in the TODO and I
don't think many people use it... (correct me if I'm wrong).
