Subject: token: initial tokenizer.

This is the initial tokenizer for the monkey language. For now we
recognize a limited number of tokens.

We only have two keywords at this stage: `fn` and `let`. `fn` is used to
create function, while `let` is used for assigning variables.

The other tokens are mostly to parse the source code, and recognize
things like brackets, parentheses, etc.
