Add notes about coding style and submission guidelines. As became clear from recent conversation, matching submitted code to the format of the existing code is not an obvious thing to do. (It should be but apparently it just doesn't occur to people.) Some description of the coding style is now present in the README. Additionally, submission guidelines have also been added to make it clear that patches (diffs) are the preferred means of providing code changes.

# this was based somewhat on the "ar" script from gcc6809

# This script is a frontend to the lwar library manager, to make it
# look more like GNU ar.  Not all ar features are supported here.
# It basically translates ar style options into lwar format.

# Parse and translate command-line options

# ar options cheatsheet:
# r: insert (with replace)
# c: create archive
# u: only replace newer files
# v: verbose mode
# x: extract files from archive
