A very clear explanation of the approach is in PiL
http://www.lua.org/pil/9.4.html
The key thing to understand is that the listening socket is not
blocking, it's just on a short timeout. Copas uses that timeout to
schedule the coroutines and resume listening. So it is not 'true'
multithreading but works well enough.
