Changed the doc class generation to individual files per class. It is also possible to save module files in module directories and the build system will recognize them.

A synchronization semaphore that can be used to synchronize multiple [Thread]s. Initialized to zero on creation. For a binary version, see [Mutex].
[b]Warning:[/b] Semaphores must be used carefully to avoid deadlocks.
[b]Warning:[/b] To guarantee that the operating system is able to perform proper cleanup (no crashes, no deadlocks), these conditions must be met:
- When a [Semaphore]'s reference count reaches zero and it is therefore destroyed, no threads must be waiting on it.
- When a [Thread]'s reference count reaches zero and it is therefore destroyed, it must not be waiting on any semaphore.

Drop old semaphore implementation - Removed platform-specific implementations. - Now all semaphores are in-object, unless they need to be conditionally created. - Similarly to `Mutex`, provided a dummy implementation for when `NO_THREADS` is defined. - Similarly to `Mutex`, methods are made `const` for easy use in such contexts. - Language bindings updated: `wait()` and `post()` are now `void`. - Language bindings updated: `try_wait()` added. Bonus: - Rewritten the `#ifdef` in `mutex.h` to meet the code style.

Lowers the [Semaphore], allowing one more thread in.

Like [method wait], but won't block, so if the value is zero, fails immediately and returns [code]false[/code]. If non-zero, it returns [code]true[/code] to report success.

Waits for the [Semaphore], if its value is zero, blocks until non-zero.
