Description

I foresee an opt-int feature where there is an AtomicBool passed via reference to the interpreter_loop function. When activated (set to true), it causes the execution to yield with a resumable state. This provides another way to implement preemption, without having to tap into fuel, one simply has to set that bool to true e.g. via interrupt.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the interpreter loop function signature and usage in the codebase. Understand how to pass an AtomicBool reference and check its value to yield a resumable state.
