[apache/incubator-teaclave] Pre-release v0.4.0-rc.1 - Apache Teaclave (incubating) 0.4.0 Release Candidate 1

[Mingshen Sun]

Apache Teaclave (incubating) is an open source universal secure computing 
platform, making computation on privacy-sensitive data safe and simple.

This is the fourth official Apache incubator release. In this release, we 
mainly focus on better user management, task management, performance 
improvement and stability.

In this release, we introduce a role-based access control for user management.  
Specifically, we define roles like admin, function owner, data owner, data 
owner manager, etc. Additionally, we also add APIs to support user management 
functionalities.  In addition, we also implement a feature to cancel a running 
task to kill a long-run function which is no longer needed. Besides these two 
new features, we also made a lot of underlying changes to improve the 
performance of RPC and stability of the secure database.

To learn more, here is a list of notable changes in Teaclave version 0.4.0.
