33e8fc8687 Expose public garbage collector API for C language
You can now do epic things like this:

    puts(_gc(xasprintf("%d", 123)));

The _gc() API is shorthand for _defer() which works like Go's keyword:

    const char *s = xasprintf("%d", 123);
    _defer(free, s);
    puts(s);

Be sure to always use -fno-omit-frame-pointer which makes code fast too.

Enjoy! See also #114

2bd1e72d5a Remove garbage collector macro from header (#114)
We can put this back the moment someone requests it. Pain-free garbage
collection for the C language is pretty cool. All it does is overwrite
the return address with a trampoline that calls free(). It's not clear
what it should be named if it's made a public API.

e75ffde09e Get codebase completely working with LLVM
You can now build Cosmopolitan with Clang:

    make -j8 MODE=llvm
    o/llvm/examples/hello.com

The assembler and linker code is now friendly to LLVM too.
So it's not needed to configure Clang to use binutils under
the hood. If you love LLVM then you can now use pure LLVM.
