Fiber should respond to call() and []

Description

=begin
Fibers are considered to be coroutines. Knuth says "Subroutines are special cases of ... coroutines". This makes sense to me.

Method, Proc, and lambda respond to call and []. If Fiber also responded to call and [], we could use coroutines in places where we use lambdas, procs, and methods.

I've attached a patch that implements the two methods.
=end
