beanstalkd 6.x-1.0-rc1

This release has a heap of resolved issues, and also the API has been cleaned up. We not comply completely with the DrupalReliableQueueInterface which will allow it to work under PHP 5.3 without any issues.

Also the Pheanstalk object has been completely exposed so that you can actually call any Pheanstalk method and it will work. Most internal processing has now been changed to use this instead of being restricted by the DrupalQueueInterface.

Lastly this version has been brought completely inline with the Drupal 7.x version.
