Happy to announce that you can now run a cluster of Erlang/rumprun
unikernel.

This change uses an patch available in Erlang/OTP github repo, which is not
closed - so still bleeding edge like this port as well.

I invested some time trying to bring in the stable c-version of the epmd
(used for distributed Erlang to enable clustering), but since the patch
used in this work is pure-Erlang so integrating was pretty easy. Now that
this is in place my original work can be delayed for a bit later.

Have fun clustering with Erlang/rumprun unikernels, which will allow you to
build applications in new and interesting ways.
