Andreas Kling 773c17b6a0 Documentation: Update FAQ a bit and move it into Documentation/
This was hiding on the serenityos.org website previously, where not
many people found it. Let's put it in a more natural location, and
also make sure to link to it from the README.

Frequently Asked Questions about SerenityOS

Will SerenityOS support $THING?

Maybe. Maybe not. There is no plan.

When will you implement $THING?

Maybe someday. Maybe never. If you want to see something happen, you can do it yourself!

Where are the ISO images?

There are no ISO images. This project does not cater to non-technical users.

Why is the system 32-bit?

That's what Andreas was most familiar with when starting out. There's some interest in supporting 64-bit systems and that will eventually happen, but it's just another feature.

I did a git pull and now the build is broken! What do I do?

If it builds on CI, it should build for you too. You may need to rebuild the toolchain. If that doesn't help, try it with a clean repo.

If you can't figure out what to do, ask in the #build-problems channel on Discord.

Why don't you use $LIBRARY instead of implementing $FEATURE yourself?

The SerenityOS project tries to maximize hackability, accountability, and fun(!) by implementing everything ourselves.
