Game-Mahjong

Mahjong, the four-player tile game, under the World Mahjong Organization's
competition rules (2006): 144 tiles including the eight flowers, chow, pung
and kong claims, robbing the kong, the eighty-one scoring elements in
twelve grades, and a minimum of eight points to win.

The engine prints nothing, reads nothing and never calls rand. A refused
move comes back as a flagged object rather than an exception, a game
serialises as its seed and its move log, and a log that records something
the rules would not have produced is refused on replay.

The tile table is C, published perl-free in include/mahjong_abi.h so the
decomposer and the shanten, which a bot walks for every candidate discard,
read the one table the Perl side reads. There is no pure-Perl fallback, so
a working C compiler is needed to install it; Makefile.PL says so in one
sentence when there is none.

This is version 0.01, phase 01 of the plan: the tiles, the notation and the
error object. The wall, the hand, the decomposer, the scorer, the rules, the
bot and the terminal follow.
