docs: Create library.md (#87)
Full documentation for the standard library, written from scratch by looking at the source code - so hopefully this is reasonably correct/precise.

Some of the function descriptions are probably too concise to be easily understandable - we can flesh this out in the future.

Some of the type specifications aren't using valid Luau syntax; in particular, I've used "function" or "table" in a few places as a human-friendly notion that any function/table suffices, and the iterator functions just say that they return <iterator> without being specific as to what the signature of the generator is.

* Removed incorrect info

The manual says Luau does not support hexadecimal \0x, Unicode \u and \z
when this clearly isn't the case.
This is also quite confusing as just a bit below it says it does support them.

Minor improvements in type checking docs (#9)
It was somewhat outdated from the current Luau world. Some changes to fix that problem.

1. Global assignments are now allowed in nonstrict mode.
2. The example that assigns to `x` from the argument `y` in the function `f` was needlessly complicated. I elected to delete it.
3. Require tracing docs shouldn't need to explain the three possible outcomes.
