This PR is to introduce a new language written in C++ that leverages the g++ compiler for ninja manifest compilation, anticipated to be significantly faster than parsing through ninja manifest_parser. This involves the creation of a dedicated header file defining necessary classes alongside an example C++ file, manifest.cc, which users are expected to adapt.

Review Sequence:

1. Design Document: Start with the design document to understand the high-level architecture and the rationale behind the new language design.
2. manifest.h: Next, review the manifest.h file to familiarize yourself with the new class definitions and interfaces.
3. manifest.cc: Finally, examine the manifest.cc file to see an example of how users define build processes using the new language syntax.

Test Plan:
Added the following test to be automatically performed by Circle CI:

check_success() {
  if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
    echo "$1"
  else
    echo "$1"
    exit 1
  fi
}

cd src/shadowdash

g++ -w -std=c++17 -fPIC -c manifest.cc  manifest.h
check_success ".o compiled successfully"

g++ -w -shared -o manifest.so manifest.o
check_success ".so compiled successfully"

cd ../..

Test Result:
Overall Test
Test to compile manifest.o and manifest.so

i saw one obvious thing... i will look more carefully again

[kyotov]

this seems like a full blown new file instead of just adding your test?
