[Coco] C compiler self-hosting on NitrOS9 again!

The reason I don't use disk images to maintain code is because there is no
possibility of properly keeping source history that way, and that's vastly
more important to the future than having the convenience of making it easy
to distribute.

It's certainly possible to generate an os9-format disk image from the
contents of the repo, I have just not yet done it.

The repository includes an ANSI-ish C preprocessor that seems to do a
better job than c_prep 19a/b/c, though it includes the history of c_prep as
well.
