Created a working snap package definition for GDC. I'm
coordinating with Iain on how to get this into the snap store
most effectively (having spent a fair bit of the hackathon
pestering him with questions about the GDC build procedure:-).
Ironically, given that I'd always been worried this would be the
most finnicky compiler snap to create, it's actually the simplest
package definition out of all the Big 3 ;-)
I also had a play with using the new `scope return` etc.
functionality to prototype a safe design for random algorithms
that wrap a pointer to an RNG. That's probably going to take a
while longer to put together, as I've run into some issues that I
really need to reduce to a very simple test case.
