Filian, Fil-C binaries on Debian cr.yp.to

Daniel J. Bernstein reports testing Fil-C, a memory-safe C/C++ toolchain, on Debian: it compiled 60 of 61 targets in a 101-minute run, and several additional programs and libraries appeared to work with tweaks. He also outlines building Debian packages for a separate Fil-C ABI, amd64fil0, and successfully built and installed a test package, tinycdb, whose runtime protection caught an invalid memory access.
