Install, CI, seeds and docs for the compiler written in Finch

bootstrap/install.sh and a share/finch lookup for the runtime and std; an ARM64 Linux seed; bootstrap/README.md;
CI builds from the seed on x64 and ARM64 and runs every test on Windows (Wine) and ARM64 (qemu); README, install and
layout sections of the guides (EN+PL) no longer talk about CMake; editors know enum, match and export.

# The compiler is written in Finch. It is built from bootstrap/<system>.ll, its own LLVM IR (see bootstrap/README.md),
# then from itself. Linux x86-64 and ARM64 have seeds; macOS and Windows machines can't build the compiler yet
# (programs for them are built from Linux with --target, and tested here under Wine and qemu).
