Adding a new language

Create a new file in the lang directory, you can just copy lang/lua and modify the values. Ensure there exists a corresponding svg for it in icon. The language value should be set the same as the filename, and the name can be set to a nice printable version. For example:

language = "cpp"
name = "C++"
...

The available parameters and their meanings are listed in Lang.gren.in. The example should be idiomatic, concise and demonstrate the most important or unique language features.

If applicable, create a benchmark dockerfile for the language for each subdirectory in benchmark. Look at the readme in each benchmark subdirectory to see what it has to do.

Run make again and the language should appear on the web page.
