b29855047b Implement $ operator, second class version of the applicative operator
The `$` operator takes a sequence of FORMS and returns a unary
function which applies the input through that sequence via the `->>`
operator.

For example, consider the predicate "not null".  `null` is built into
Common Lisp but "not null" requires writing a
function (lambda (x) (not (null x))).  Now, using this operator, you
can write ($ not null) which returns the same lambda as above while
being more concise.

ef572b992b Introduce lib.functions which includes helper functions
Splitting macros and functions into different packages and source code
makes it easier to look at.   Functions currently implemented:
- range: like Python's range
- parse-integer*: parse-integer but junk-allowed is set to t.

bbde84c7d7 Add type alias for function and macro for defining functions with type specifier
`fn' is a convenience macro for defining functions with a type
specifier.  Only really matters for `sbcl` and other hard-optimising
Lisp interpreters which actually take these seriously.

19b68fa49c Initial commit.
Setup boilerplate for system/package management.  In particular, setup
an entry-point and Shinmera's "deploy" to build executables.

Also write some scripts to easily load or build the project without
Emacs - just `sbcl --load <x>.lisp`.
