Spread multiple messages for concurrency

Writing to a channel should accept an array and all the messages in that array should be sent in the same call. The reason for this is that spreading those messages is something that Newque itself can do! By having only a single call to Newque, you can maximize throughput over the network. And it also lets you mark those messages as "atomic", which means that they'll only ever be written and read together (they count as one message in Newque).

To spread messages, add this to your channel's configuration file:

"writeSettings": {
  "batching": {
    "maxSize": 1,
    "maxTime": 0
  }
}

Newque has special optimizations for batching.maxSize == 0 and will spread the messages so that they are sent to the Backend one at a time in a way that's performant.

After discussion with @bradstimpson I learned that this issue is to implement something similar to Axios' or Bluebird's spread functionality.
