- Logger output is slightly modified to be more Pythonic

### Fixed

- Numerous bugfixes and refactors

- State now provides a local context

### Changed

- Refactored Executor and everything it talks to significantly
- Some older APIs may be broken or removed by the above refactor (`state.co` is no more, for instance)
