### Description

This RFC proposes a make recipe `genmanifest*` that can be used to generate `include.gypi` , `binding.gyp` and `manifest.json`

> * *: name can be subjected to change in future

Right now, the creation of these files has been manual, that is, for every C implementation for a package such as `@stdlib/math/base/special/fast/abs` we need to create these files manually, copying the includes and binding gyp files from existing related packages and create manifest.json depending on the dependencies used by the package

automating this can help in easing these tasks and also lessen the burden on the contributor as well as new comers.

A working prototype for this would be :

![image](https://github.com/stdlib-js/stdlib/assets/73595362/b02f0fb7-ac84-4858-868f-d5ea27d17d84)

this prototype extracts dependencies used in C files from src, benchmark and examples folder and generate the related manifest.json , include.gypi and binding.gyp for that package

this can be further expanded to support blas as blas manifest.json also follows a similiar pattern based on the related file name like `ccopy.f` is being used in mac and there are 5 os based confs
