Adds in files to assist with further development.

- Adds a README file that will be filled out with more information later.
- Adds a Node.js manifest file to describe this project along with
  several development utilities useful for JavaScript-specific projects.

Note the package.json addition is intermediary as the actual
refactoring has not landed yet.
