asap queue can be effectively overflown (using [email protected])

[xytis]

Minimal example snippet:

"use strict";

var q = require("q");

var i;
var _handle = function (value) {
    console.log(value);
    return value;
};
for (i = 0; i < 1026; i++) {
    q(i).then(_handle).then(_handle);
}

Result (on my machine, 1026 loop iteration fails. I do not know if this is machine dependent)

/opt/socketeer/source/node_modules/q/node_modules/asap/asap.js:40
        this.task.call();

I've marked [email protected], 2.0.1 and 2.0.2 as deprecated with a message of "critical race condition fixed in 2.0.3, update now". Hopefully that will keep people from using the broken versions too often.
