TypeInfo.Pointer.Size says "many", so there we are!

356fbf1b5b New illustration in README!
Using the "put an image in an issue and link to it on the README" trick to
keep the Ziglings repo size down.

654437c0bc Make "check and halt" the default for zig build NN (#15)
The "start with NN" action is now NN_start.

Also formatting output for improved clarity (hopefully).

5505569980 Updating README description of project
Also updated the GitHub project description to:
"Learn the Zig programming language by fixing tiny broken programs."

I think it sounds more of a fun challenge this way rather than the more
academic "learn by doing exercises".

I mean, who wouldn't want to come help these "tiny broken programs"?!?

cf0920de31 Added Ex. 38-43 for pointers, updated README
Added topics beyond the language basics from ziglearn.org
to the README. That's a lot of exercises. I'd like to keep
it under 100, though!

2cded107cd Add ex 35,36 enums; updated README
I'm changing the order of some more topics. Trying to explain the value
of pointers when we're mostly dealing with stack-sized values like
integers feels convoluted. So I'm starting with enums (which also has a
nice segue from an earlier "switch" exercise). Then structs. Then unions
(just in keeping with the order of these items on ziglearn.org) and THEN
pointers and multi-pointers and slices.
