bad s64 initializer: "donkey"

In C, signed arithmetic overflow is undefined behvior
but unsigned arithmetic overflow is twos complement
Unconditionally switch to unsigned arithmetic internally for +, -, *
This will not affect the result thanks to twos complement awesomeness.
I don't think this will be an issue in these functions,
but it has a history of causing bugs.....
Buffers make more sense for this function because one of their primary
use cases is working with bytes.
The tuple implementation was an array of floats, which is less
performant and ergonomic for common operations. (i.e: bit manipulation)
Buffers also have the advantage they are mutable, meaning the user
can write ints to an existing buffer.
Previously int/to-number would fail if the input was outside
the range of an int32.
Because Janet numbers are doubles,
they can safely store larger ints than an int32.
This commit updates int/to-number to restrict the
value to the range of integers a double can hold, instead of an int32.
(int/to-number value) converts an s64 or u64 to a number.
It restricts the value to the int32 range,
so that `int32?` will always suceeded when called on the result.
When new fibers are scheduled on the event loop, this new_channel
receives the newly created fibers. This lets a fiber track which fibers
have been added and let's a user implement a supervisor.
Fix formatting.
Inpsired by the REBOL operators of the same name, these
combinators match bytes up to or inculding a given pattern.
(to patt) is (almost) equalivalent to (any (if-not patt 1)), and
(thru patt) is equivalent to (* (to patt) patt). The one difference
is that if the end of the input is reached and patt is not
matched, the entire pattern does not match.
This means we can add new properties to abstract types without
breaking old code. We can also make simple abstract types without
needing to add many NULL fields to the type.
Because we use an amalgated build, feature
test macros should be set in a single file that
is included before any other headers, and is placed
at the top of the amalgamated build.
This unifies equality and comparison checking. Before, we had
separate functions and vm opcodes for comparing general values vs.
for comparing numbers, where the numberic functions were polymorphic and
had special cases for handling NaNs. By unfiying them, abstract types
can now better integrate with other number types and behave as keys.
For now, the old functions are aliased but will eventually be removed.
Gives more control over unmarshalling
abstract types. This should also
make it possible/easy to write abstract types that cannot
cause unmarshal to segfault.
64 bit nanboxing is kind of sketchy on non x86 architectures.
32 bit architectures seem to work better as the 32 implementation
doesn't rely on the format of the address space and layout of
double's in memory.
