Landon Curt Noll 11dfe51c6c move IOCCC Quick Start Guide
Created `quick-start.md` to hold the FAQ 0.0 content.

Used `sgit(1)` to change:

* faq.html#enter ==> quick-start.html#enter
* faq.html#enter_questions ==> quick-start.html#enter_questions
* faq.html#step_0 ==> quick-start.html#step_0
* faq.html#step_1 ==> quick-start.html#step_1
* faq.html#step_2 ==> quick-start.html#step_2
* faq.html#register ==> quick-start.html#register
* faq.html#step_3 ==> quick-start.html#step_3
* faq.html#step_4 ==> quick-start.html#step_4
* faq.html#step_5 ==> quick-start.html#step_5
* faq.html#step_6 ==> quick-start.html#step_6
* faq.html#step_7 ==> quick-start.html#step_7
* faq.html#step_submit ==> quick-start.html#step_submit

The former FAQ 0.0 section in `faq.html` now just refers to `quick-start.html`.

Modified menu and non-JS menu so that "Enter the IOCCC" refers to `quick-start.html`.

Changed `bin/gen-top-html.sh` VERSION from "1.4.10 2024-11-23"
to "1.4.11 2025-01-09".

Performed `make www` on macOS to complete the above.

To build:

    make

To use:

    ./bellard

Judges' remarks:

This code is a nice compact example of a Modular Fast Fourier Transform. While its output is very specific, the internal FFT has a wide variety of uses.

Can you modify this code to produce primes such as 23523*2^70000-1, 48594^65536+1 or 6917!-1?

NOTE: as bigger primes are found as time goes by this program no longer prints the biggest prime once noted by the author below.

Author's comments:

This program prints the biggest known prime number (2^6972593-1) in base 10. It requires a few minutes. It uses a Modular Fast Fourier Transform to compute this number in a reasonable amount of time (the usual method would take ages !).

The program uses >= 64 bit long long type. It should run on any system with a gcc compiler.
