Upgrade to full webpage

Since there's little room for more information on the README table, I propose the list be migrated to its own webpage (at https://ethproductions.github.io/golfing-langs or similar). This would allow more info to be displayed for each language; there could even be a small page for each.

The info to include for each language:

• Name (including past/aka names)
• Source (link to GitHub repo or similar)
• Creator (including past/aka names)
• Type (stack-based, prefix, etc.)
• Specialty (perhaps just use the language page to expand a bit on its purpose)
• Inspiration/origin story? (this would definitely be only on the language page)
• Esolangs.org link (if available)
• Documentation
• Quick reference/cheat-sheet (perhaps archive some of the older ones—CJam's cheat-sheet was taken down a while back)
• Online interpreter (TIO if it has one, plus any other up-to-date online interpreters)
• Codepage (default, at least; e.g. Jelly supports UTF-8, but has its own default 256-char codepage)
• Usage/popularity statistics?
• Status (indev/stable/abandoned/etc.; would probably have to be updated manually)

Additionally, we could have a page for each language creator. This could include:

• Main username
• Real name (if available)
• Additional usernames (past and/or aka)
• GitHub profile
• PPCG profile
• Esolangs.org profile
• Other profiles?

Suggestions are welcome for anything...

Change issue template to use tio.run/nexus/languagename instead of old domain

Wiki page for list of functions within a language

The wiki should be divided into 3 categories:

• Functions in stack based languages
• Functions in regex or string based languages
• Functions in prefix and infix languages

This can be used as a cheatsheet for building new languages
