Adds λanguage to the L section.
The repository holds two languages that share a syntax. λanguage is dynamically typed and functional, and compiles through CPS to JavaScript. lm has the same minimal syntax with machine-level semantics, and it targets four independent backends: C, WebAssembly, ARM64 and a bytecode VM. One program can be sent through all four and timed against them:
Following the convention in the recent additions, this also increments the total at the top (960 to 961) and the L section count (74 to 75).
On placement: the name begins with a Greek lambda, so there is no obvious sort position. I put it where "Lambda" would fall, between Lake and Lang5. Move it if you would rather it sat elsewhere, or listed under lm.
