Feature request (yet another) new board type

Maybe if I have some free time I'll take a look at this.

OK first problem -- this one has nine pieces, while the others have eight. So the match statement in get_blocks blows chunks, because you can't have an 8-array and a 9-array return in the same match statement. It sounds like using the enum directly in some way may work?

(Not super familiar with Rust.)

I don't think I'll support this board by myself because I don't have the puzzle, but pull requests are welcome.
You can see #1 to know which files we should update for a new board.

you can't have an 8-array and a 9-array return in the same match statement.

This shouldn't be a problem if you change the array to Vec:

let pieces = match typ {
  PuzzleType::DragonFjord => {
    // Change fixed-size array to Vec
    vec![HexRect, PentL, PentN, PentP, PentU, PentV, PentY, PentZ]
  }
   ...
};

It'll require an extra heap allocation, but it's negligible.

Oh lol. Glad there's such a simple solution. I had gone down a very unhelpful rabbit hole of discussions over whether to allow variable-length arrays in Rust.

Anyway, please see #8

I got everything working except the web interface, which runs and shows the options, but doesn't actually return the solution for the correct set.

Also this is literally my first time coding in Rust, so let me know if anything is deeply wrong in how I've done things.

It's now available at the page as "Tetromino-type Calendar Puzzle". Thanks @oneillkza for your contribution!

You're most welcome!
