Documents the FFI layer for Mentat, and provides transaction functionality via an EDN string. Creates two native libraries for iOS (Swift) and Android (Java) and fully tests the FFI for both platforms.

* Start installing the SQLite store and bootstrapping the datom store.
* Review comment: Decomplect V2_IDENTS.
* Review comment: Decomplect V2_PARTS.
* Review comment: Pre: Expose Clojure's merge on Value instances.
* Review comment: Decomplect V2_SYMBOLIC_SCHEMA.
* Review comment: Decomplect V1_STATEMENTS.
* Review comment: Prefer ? to try!.
* Review comment: Fix typos; format; add TODOs.
* Review comment: Assert that Mentat `Schema` is valid upon creation.
* Review comment: Improve conversion to and from SQL values.
This patch factors the fundamental SQL conversion maps
between (rusqlite::Value, value_type_tag) and (edn::Value, ValueType)
through a new Mentat TypedValue. (A future patch might rename this
fundamental type mentat::Value.)
To make certain conversion functions infallible, I removed
placeholders for :db.type/{instant,uuid,uri}. (We could panic
instead, but there's no need to do that right now.)
* Review comment: Always uses bundled SQLite in rusqlite.
This avoids (runtime) failures in Travis CI due to old SQLite
versions. See 432966ac77.
* Review comment: Move semantics in `from_sql_value_pair`.
* Review comment: DB_EXCISE_BEFORE_T instead of ...BEFORET (no underscore).
* Review comment: Move overview notes to the Wiki.
The parser mostly works and has a decent test suite. It parses all the
queries issued by the Tofino UAS, with some caveats. Known flaws:
* No support for tagged elements, comments, discarded elements or "'".
* Incomplete support for escaped characters in strings and the range of
characters that are allowed in keywords and symbols.
* Possible whitespace handling problems.
