amiga-support: Rust replacement for amiga.lib functions

Implementation of Amiga (m68k) amiga.lib functions for Rust.

This crate is intended to be used with the amiga-sys crate.

This library is still work in progress!

Features

• implementations for amiga.lib functions
• the functions are marked as unsafe because they handle raw pointers, just like the original amiga.lib functions
• no dependency to the Amiga Native Development Kit (NDK): no dependency to the NDK headers or amiga.lib
• supports no_std (no dependency to std or alloc)
• only cross-compiling for Amiga (no building on Amiga)
• extra feature: a lazy developer who doesn't respond quickly to issues or pull requests

Not supported

• functions with variadic arguments: there's always a similar function available without variadic arguments (the replacement function's name usually ends with Args, List or A)
• alib_stdio: functions duplicating libc functionality: printf(), fgetc(), etc.
• debug.lib and ddebug.lib functions: KGetChar(), KPrintF(), DGetChar(), DPrintF(), etc.
• no support for AmigaOS 4.0 or other derivatives, PowerPC or other non-m68k Amiga versions
