Suck data up through a channel

## Features

- Pull-based communication: Consumers request values on-demand
- Contextual values: Designed for current state rather than event streams
- Flexible sources: Support both static values and dynamic closures

## Installation

Add this to your `Cargo.toml`:

```toml
[dependencies]
suck = "*"
```

## Quick Start

```rust
use suck::SuckPair;

fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    // Create a pair
    let (sucker, sourcer) = SuckPair::<i32>::pair();

    // Start producer in a thread
    let producer = std::thread::spawn(move || {
        // Set a static value
        sourcer.set_static(42).unwrap();

        // Or set a dynamic closure
        sourcer.set(|| {
            // Generate fresh values each time
            42 * 2
        }).unwrap();

        // Run the producer loop
        sourcer.run().unwrap();
    });

    // Consumer pulls values
    let value = sucker.get()?;
    println!("Got value: {}", value);

    // Clean up
    sucker.close()?;
    producer.join().unwrap();

    Ok(())
}
```
