This project was made to give a way of getting number<>name information 
for system call. And for 'is it implemented'.

Nothing more, just simple info. And so far helped many developers and 
their projects.

One day I got request from loongarch port maintainers to add their table 
because systemd relies on it ;D

I also made Python module for using it. So far no known users :D
