Migrating Makefile to a Go-native taskfile

Remove the `Makefile` and introduce `tasks.go`. A task-runner written in
Go. It's a lightweight task runner that only requires Go, thus removing
this project's dependency on GNU Make. I implemented it for this express
purpose.

Is it really necessary to remove the dependency on `make`? Perhaps not,
but I think it's an interesting approach to reducing the project's
prerequisites, and I like having as few prerequisites as possible. Also
the challange of building this was a fune one :)

+## Tasks
+
+This project uses a custom Go-based task runner to run common tasks. To get started run:
+
+```shell
+go run tasks.go
+```
+
+For example, you can run one task as:
+
+```shell
+go run tasks.go verify
+```
+
+We recommend configuring the following command alias:
+
+```shell
+alias gask='go run tasks.go'
+```
+
+Which would allow you to run:
+
+```shell
+gask verify
+```
