Subject: Initial commit

Basic GNU standard files are added, and we now stop worrying about
monadic anamorphisms.

The current focus is on testing the correctness of the algorithm, so I
need convenient support for manipulating, interpreting, examining, and
per chance animating nondeterministic automata.

+//! This file defines behaviours of paramorphisms and apomorphisms.
+//!
+//! A paramorphism is a generalization of a catamorphism.  Instead of
+//! using an algebra, which is a function from F(T) to T, we use an
+//! R-algebra, which is a function from F(T, F(T)) to T.  The extra
+//! F(T) represents the contexts where the collapsing happens.
+//!
+//! An apomorphism is a generalization of anamorphism.  It is the
+//! categorical dual of a paramorphism.  So it uses an R-co-algebra,
+//! which is a function from T to F(F(T) + T), where the latter sum is
+//! the categorical co-product.
