Message:

Do not hold a task's return value after it has disconnected.

Holding the task's return value meant that if nobody waited
for task's result, it polluted NS's memory. This was apparently
done because of a race between spawning a task and waiting for it.

We solve this problem in another way: ns discards the return value
as soon as the task disconnects from it. This typically happens
when the task finishes its execution. In order to avoid the race,
we send the wait request to ns while spawning the task (i.e. when
we talk to the loader), but before we allow the loaded program
to run.

Fixes #132
