Some docs info

[naturallymitchell]

rust-stm has a lot of helpful background info to pull from. This Simon Marlow's Parallel and Concurrent Programming in Haskell: Software Transactional Memory
Chapter Summary looks valuable.

Also, that project has a handful of "watchers" who might have interest in this project.

Thank you for your interest! rust-stm is really nice, and I'd be happy to have feedback/contributions from people currently using it. The performance concerns listed in Simon's book mostly also apply to swym.

I'd be happy to have PRs to add more links, references to the docs.
