Rtinycc: Builds the 'TinyCC' Command-Line Interface and Library for 'C' Scripting in 'R'

Builds the 'TinyCC' (Tiny 'C' Compiler) command-line interface and library for package use in 'R'. The package compiles 'TinyCC' from source and provides R functions to interact with the compiler. 'TinyCC' can be used for header preprocessing, just-in-time compilation of 'C' code in 'R', and lightweight 'C' scripting workflows.
