The current find_package(BISON) implementation leaves a lot to be desired. We could do way better by supporting a generate(BISON) command. This will also have to work in conjunction with a generate(FLEX) command as well. The actual work for this might be pushed until after the pre-alpha release.

✨ Add Event API (Closes #17)
2cb4466 
✨ Add Introspection API (Closes #19)
  Commands provided are "locals", "macros", "commands", and "functions".
  Each can be passed `REMOVE` or `KEEP` and this is used to filter the
  output from the commands.

:sparkles: inspect is now a macro
  This fixes the issue where ARGN can't be reached from the calling
  scope.

:sparkles: Add target(SOURCES) command
  This replaces the previous target_sources override. This will reduce
  the chances of name collision with builtin CMake commands.

:sparkles: Add `void` macro
  This unsets all arguments passed to it in the current calling scope

:construction: Add FindBison and FindFlex files
  This will help with #28. They are also meant to replace the fairly old
  and unmaintained FindBISON and FindFLEX CMake packages.

:truck: Move `dict()` command to API::Core (#15)
:truck: Move part of `log()` command to API::Core (#15)
:truck: Rename API::Author to API::Core (#15)

:fire: `dict(INSERT STRING)` is now `dict(INSERT CONCAT)`

:construction: Add target(COMPILE) skeleton (#18)
:construction: Add target(INTERFACE) skeleton (#18)
:construction: Add target(LIBRARY) skeleton (#18)
:construction: Add target(UNITY) skeleton (#18)
:construction: Add target(PLUGIN) skeleton (#18)
:construction: Add target(TEST) skeleton (#18)
:construction: Add target(PROGRAM) skeleton(#18)

:pencil: Removed Patreon link (as this is planned to be shutdown at some
point)

These are being moved into specific modules so that if users want something beyond what IXM does by default, they can instead use find_package(Bison) (as opposed to find_package(BISON)), and then use add_bison_target. Documentation is forthcoming, but having this generate() call turned out to be a bust in terms of flexibility in the end :/
