Title: RFC: Contributed shootout pidigits.jl to Julia and created shootout directory

Hi,

After issue https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/660, I send the pidigits.jl, hopefully the first in a series.

I added divmod and lshift from gmp.

The pidigits.jl code runs as fast as Python's given on the shooutout website, and I had to comment out the printouts that took much longer than for Python -- I don't know Julia well enough to see how to optimise the code any further.

I also created a separate directory for the shootout codes, in the examples directory, because it's a project in itself as someone mentioned in issue 660.
