	state machine

	a finite state machine implementation

	each state is either:

	- a table with enter, exit, update and draw callbacks (all optional)
		which each take the state table and varargs as arguments
	- a function
		which gets passed the current event name, the machine, and varargs as arguments

	on changing state, the outgoing state's exit callback is called
	then the incoming state's enter callback is called
		enter can trigger another transition by returning a string

	on update, the current state's update callback is called
		the return value can trigger a transition

	on draw, the current state's draw callback is called
		the return value is discarded

	TODO: consider coroutine friendliness
