gollark: `stdatomic.h` is unnecessary if we just remove threading.

gollark: `stdio.h` goes against functional purity so that can be dropped.

gollark: `uchar.h` and `wchar.h` are probably unnecessary, just make everyone use ASCII.

gollark: `time.h` can probably just be removed if we tell everyone to measure all time in "milliseconds since unix epoch".

gollark: Does anyone really *need* string manipulation?
