Backends

[phase]

We need to organize what backends we want and how we're going to build them.

• LLVM: As the most optimized backend, LLVM is great for speed, but can be bad for compile times.

• JVM: ASM will probably be the library we use.

• Parrot: Parrot's IR is very simple but doesn't have complex types.

• NekoVM: Neko should be easy to compile to.

• WASM/JS: Putting the language on the web will be cool, and WASM gives us the static typing and speed we want.

• B3: Webkit's new backend seems promising, and using JavaCPP will make it easy to call.

• Cretonne: A Rust backend might be hard to call.

• MoarVM
