Ground, but written in C this time

This repo houses the new Ground interpreter, which will replace the old C++ interpreter.

Features of this interpreter:

• Written in C instead of C++
• Somewhat organised and readable codebase
• Not super buggy (yet)
• Uses standard, portable C*

Now that Ground's features have mostly been finalised, this interpreter can be built with care to many features not initially planned, like functions and data structures

*so far, only tested on Linux, but hopefully should work on other platforms as well
