Add Github Action for Building Binaries #111
Conversation
Added github action to make, run tests, and export binaries for macOS and linux. I got around mk270#109 with a bit of a hack. This does not solve the problem, but it allows us to get it working for now. The same functionality is half there for Windows, I just haven't figured out how to properly install GNAT yet.

It seems msys2 does have packages, so Windows is hopefully a bit easier to handle than macOS.
https://packages.msys2.org/package/mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc-ada
https://packages.msys2.org/package/mingw-w64-x86_64-gprbuild

Thanks! I will try it that out.

So, you would think Windows would be easier. But so far it has been harder.
I've worked out how to set up the gnat and the rest on a local windows machine. However it does not build properly:
bin/makeinfl INFLECTS.LAT > /dev/null
raised LATIN_UTILS.INFLECTIONS_PACKAGE.GIVE_UP : latin_utils-inflections_package.adb:572
mingw32-make: *** [Makefile:35: INFLECTS.SEC] Error 1
It can't make the inflections file for some reason. If I make that file on my mac, copy it over, and then run the last line in the makefile (bin/makeefil.exe), then it seems to function.
I installed msys2, updated all of it's packages, and installed the following three packages:
https://packages.msys2.org/package/mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc-ada
https://packages.msys2.org/package/mingw-w64-x86_64-gprbuild
https://packages.msys2.org/package/mingw-w64-x86_64-make
Then using the make (the last link) to build using make all
I'm at a bit of a loss as to what to do about it.

This gets us 2/3 of the way towards finishing #2.
