Starts fn(args) in a logical thread and will receive a LinkTerminated
message when the operation terminates.
Executes the supplied function in a new logical thread represented by
Tid. This new thread is linked to the calling thread so that if either
it or the calling thread terminates a LinkTerminated message will be sent
to the other, causing a LinkTerminated exception to be thrown on receive().
The owner relationship from spawn() is preserved as well, so if the link
between threads is broken, owner termination will still result in an
OwnerTerminated exception to be thrown on receive().
