Support a cosmopolitan target

[bakpakin]

I got it working locally - however I needed to turn off IPV6 code and make some Makefile modifications to allow bypassing the shared library step. There also seem to be some extra warnings but otherwise it looks ok.

Makes sense, as cosmopolitan handles the other platform abstractions. I'll just try to compile the generic posix later with the cosmocc toolchain.

I pushed a build changes yesterday, but I wouldn't consider this fixed until CI has a cosmopolitan build in it

The python.com binary allow embedding of pure python libraries in the binary itself, as it's a valid zip file.
To add the same feature in Janet, a custom loader could be added to janet.com during the build process.

I'm pretty sure jart was one of the people who first got janet to run with cosmopolitan - helps that Janet has a sort of generic "Posix" target built in, but I would imagine it would mostly just work.

[tionis]

Should I leave this open then, until the cosmopolitan target supports ipv6 and the build process is documented?

[tecosaur]

As mentioned in #1363, I'm interested in creating some APE binaries with Janet. @tionis it sounds like you managed to get this working?

[tionis]

You should be able to compile the cosmopolitan target with a working cosmopolitan environment to get a Janet APE executable. But anything else is not supported at the moment.
I'd like to fix it up, but I'm not that well versed in C and got other projects with higher priority, so I don't know if/when I'll look into it again.
