Norvig’s originals and updates

This directory contains:

• original/: Norvig’s lis.py, lispy.py, and the lispytest.py custom test script for testing both;
• py3.10/: lis.py with type hints, pattern matching, and minor edits—requires Python 3.10.

The py3.10/ directory also has lis_test.py to run with pytest, including the lis_tests suite from original/lispytest.py, and additional separate tests for each expression and special form handled by evaluate.
