Jordan Bancino 1fee47a628 Use Makefiles instead of a custom script (#38)
This pull request also requires the use of the external [Cytoplasm](/Telodendria/Cytoplasm) repository by removing the in-tree copy of Cytoplasm. The increased modularity requires a little more complex build process, but is overall better. Closes #19

The appropriate documentation has been updated. Closes #18

* @Nd An extension of the JSON API that produces the Matrix spec's canonical JSON.

* @Xr Json
*
* This API is an extension of
* .Xr json 3
* that is specifically designed to produce the Matrix specification's
* "canonical" JSON.
* .Pp
* Canonical JSON is defined as JSON that:
* .Bl -bullet -offset indent
* .It
* Does not have any unecessary whitespace.
* .It
* Has all object key lexicographically sorted.
* .It
* Does not contain any floating point numerical values.
* .El
* .Pp
* The regular JSON encoder has no such rules, because normally they
* are not needed. However, Canonical JSON is needed in some cases to
* consistently sign JSON objects.

* out float values. If at all possible, use
