GSoC 2017 introduction

[Victor Krapivensky]

I would like to implement the parser for statx. Here is my current
attempt (no tests yet).
I've spotted the tests/statx.sh script. Unfortunately, due to that
tests/init.sh expects the caller name to end with ".test", it just
endlessly runs itself. What is it supposed to do?
Also, how do I get syscall numbers for all the platforms?
